OT: How do you wind down after a session?
 

I live in the UK, so I play late at night/early morning. I'm sure many of you out there do. Therefore, after a session it's usually time for bed. However, my brain is still buzzing from all the thousands of decisions I've just made and I find it hard to sleep. Sometimes I just don't bother sleeping at all (like right now), which is obviously hazardous to your health!

Suggestions? (please keep the sarcastic replies to a minimun unless it's really funny [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] )

usually 2-3 cigs does the trick for me, or I play some Rome:Total War for 45 mins or so.

read a book or watch tv

I run a couple miles or do a couple hundred situps, then I wake up my woman and freak her all night.

Oh whom am I kidding. In reality I wank off to my favorite Final Fantasy characters, then warm up a nice glass of milk & tuck myself in.

Wow. You just described my nightly dilemma in a nutshell. Mega... you a working man? In college? HS? Unemployed? Just curious if you share my plight.

I really think you need to give yourself at least an hour buffer between finishing up a session and bedtime. I have found that if I try to hit the sack immediately, I end up just popping out of bed after rolling around in my own self-analysis for an hour and pouring my heart out on 2p2.

For me... a good hour of SportsCenter winds me down. Pretty much an hour of anything NOT poker will aid my sleep. I have also found little success with trying to read myself to sleep with rereads HoH or SSHE, as this just gets me in the poker mood again.

If all else fails, PM me, and we can have a nightly argument to wind down [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Oh wait, different time zones, that won't work.

Its funny I was on a really great heater last night and had the same problem. I usually try to read but that doesnt help. Last night I started more games cause I had done well previously and didnt get to sleep until like 5.
