Does anyone know how to aid one to sleep. I don't feel well and every time I try to sleep... I keep having...

It doesn't matter. Does anyone know how to make me sleep?

[ He's feverish and sleep-deprived and okay maybe a little freaked out and panicky but he'd never admit that. ]

[Well, this was something that Jin Guangyao was very familiar with. He tended to have recurrent nightmares on a near-daily basis.]

Some chamomile tea can help one relax enough to drift. There are other herbs that can help but I would worry about taking them at your age.

How long have you had trouble? A-Ling?

[jinlingers]

I've already tried tea.

A couple days.

[taintedpeony]

That is a while to not be able to sleep. It should be affecting all the other parts of your life.

I'll see what herbs I have available to help ease you in. I am sorry you are going through this A Ling.

[jinlingers]

It's getting difficult to manage.

[ The issues he's having are far more severe than what he's been used to. ]

This isn't your fault.

[ This time anyway. ]

We will find a way to help you sleep, A-Ling. I know this has to be hard for you, but remember that I'm here. So, we'll find a way.

[jinlingers]

I know you're here.

[fierceprotector]

Which means that we'll do everything we can to get through this.

[jinlingers]

Mm.

[ This is a familiar problem. ]

I have an incense that will help. I'll get a bundle of it ready. Where should I have it delivered?

[jinlingers]

[ Jin Ling is willing to try pretty much anything at this point. ]

Thank you.

[ And an address to the Jin residence that Jin Zixuan had left behind. ]

Action

[fated_dance]

[ Zishu had already been making more of those special incense sticks, so it's easy to gather a few, along with a few other options. So it doesn't take long before he arrives at the address, and knocks - basket at an elbow as he studies what he can of the residence as he waits. ]

[jinlingers]

[ The home had been fashioned in the style of Jin Ling's Lanling home, touches of Jiang purple in with the golds of the Jin Sect.

Jin Ling tiredly opens the door when the other knocks, Fairy at his heels. He's feverish and doesn't feel quite steady on his feet but he does his best to hide that. ]

Welcome.

[ Jin Ling greets him, bowing politely. ]

Jin Ling! What's wrong? Where is your mother?

[jinlingers]

She's here at home...

I'm pretty sure I got cursed by this stupid horse head worm thing...

[jc_superstar]

Head worm...

But you're not female this time?

[jinlingers]

[ Look that thing was a freakish nightmare... ]

Of course not!!!!!!!!

[dreamvour]

i am told that warm milk or certain types of tea help
also clearing one's mind which is easier said then done
if your problem is staying asleep i can help more with that

[jinlingers]

How would you help someone stay asleep?

[dreamvour]

i would offer to eat their dreams
or if that is too much, i know how to make dreamcatchers
though how well those work here is hard to say

[bluebun]

Have you tried the typical routes?
Tea?
Are you too cool?
Too hot?
You could try a bath with some oils.

[jinlingers]

Yes, of course.

I haven't tried a bath, though.

[bluebun]

I can come over and run one for you if you'd like.

[jasidian]

Try having some sort of ambient noise around. I've also found that having access to your communication device is...not helpful.

[jinlingers]

I do not use this thing much.

[jasidian]

It was only a suggestion?

Still, there's all sorts of ways to help, but it depends on what's keeping you awake.
