AIR BEDS!!!!

[droopy56]

To all of you out there who are having trouble sleeping: I got rid of my inner-spring mattress (it was like sleeping on a sack full of doorknobs) and just threw my air bed that I used for camping on the floor. You wouldn't believe the difference it's made! I take a 1/2 Mg of clonazepam to help me get to sleep, but the big difference is that with the air bed I don't feel all that pressure against my body at night. I sleep better, though I still have periods where I wake up a few times a night, but I can deal with that. The only drawback is that it takes me awhile to get up off the floor in the morning. I keep a chair nearby to help me with that. I used to have a raised airbed but my cat took care of that (Ooops). Hope this helps someone else out there.

Have you thought about throwing your air mattress on top of your mattress and springs? The reason I ask is my son did this once b/c he was a lazy teenager who did not want to keep airing up the thing. Just a thought. It might be easier to get up.

Thanks for sharing the tip, It's weird how we all find querky ways to deal with our pain. I'm going camping soon so I'll pay attention to how I feel sleeping on the air bed.
