3 a.m. blues - What do you do when you wake up in the middle of the night?

Many of us have experienced a sleepless night; not being able to get to sleep, or are in a state of being half asleep. Or the case may be that we have slept, but wake up for some reason. In both these cases, there is a point when we know we won’t be getting to sleep anytime soon, and lay on our beds wide awake. What do you do next?

Just lay there pondering; waiting for sleep or the morning, whichever comes first.
Right choice
Listen to music or read a book; something relaxing to get you back to sleep.
Eat, or drink (a glass of milk).
Switch on late night television.
Go outside, on the balcony or porch and look at the stars.
Go online.
Go for a late night walk.
Phone up a friend (preferably in a different time zone) and chat, or text someone.
Other – please share with us in a comment…if it’s not too personal of course!

I don't agree with this answer...sounds foolish to me!I would go get something to do 'cause it would mean that your body doesnot need to rest anymore!

lay there blankly remembering where i just was in my dreams and what all that just happened. Then mabey get up and use the bathroom, and while i'm downstairs, get something to drink. And if i'm really up then i may see what's on late night t.v. until i fall back to sleep on the couch. then i'll wake up later and go back to bed. that's the REAL answer.

Just lie there - doing anything else would disturb my husband. Now that's devotion for you! I would much rather put on the light and read a book.
