Its hilarious, Wade and Colossus make the movie great

Do you know any breathing exercises for anxiety? Even when anxiety isn’t involved sometimes they can help me to fall asleep.. there’s a few different ones out there so its worth the internt search to find one that works best to help you.. but one i use is breath in through your nose a few seconds ( around 5 count) hold for a few seconds and then relax as you exhale slowly with your lips almost making a whistle

I have those nights where I'm sleepy but just can't sleep. I've suffered insomnia for many years now, still do.

I love The Exorcist! However, my taste is horror, sci-fi, & lots of Comic-Book/Superhero movies.

I actually got to know Jason Miller who played Father Damian in The Exorcist movie. He was native to my hometown.

Music is a get soothing thing to do to rest the mind from over-thinking. I listen to music a lot. I listen mostly to my housework & at work to stay as stress-free as I can. My taste in music is wide but yet, still somewhat selective. Mostly listen to Rock/Metal. But I love music ranging from Dean Martin to Eminem to Otep, even country & classical.

It 2:25 am here, at this moment. I have so much racing around in my mind right now & my niece also wakes up off and on & just did about 5 minutes.

I hope you get to sleep... I wish you well.

Funny you say that cuz my nephew thinks it's time to practice his drum solo right now. I have a wide range of music as well; from Phil Collins to Tupac. It's good to know when you are not alone and know there are people you can talk to at this hour.

That is funny... I usually try my best to let myself have my nights to myself as much as I can, most times, it never happens. I have literally hidden in my basement for just a little while so I can feel what being alone for a bit felt like.

I will be trying to sleep by turning this darn laptop off, any minute. I'm already tired all the time, don't need to make myself more in the morning, unless... my niece actually sleeps in a lot...lol.

I hope that you do get to sleep soon.

Hi..My favorite movie is rabbit proof fence..

Hi Jrick34! I see many of us don’t have the best night... I love old French comedies (I know, not the most popular opinion) like Fantomas. They are funny and light-hearted.

Hey 👋🏽 hope you were able to get a good sleep.. ooh I just love too many movies to name favs but I do love The Conjuring.. 👻

Hi. Maybe you should try ear plugs if your nephew thinks it's ok to play drums in the middle of the night. That might be a good way to start. I use them as it can help me with the odd hours, sometimes daytime, that I manage to sleep. Just as thought!! 😺x

Ugh I woke up around 2 am and sat for awhile before going on YouTube haha. I can't stand nights like that.

I really love the Lord of the rings trilogy. Can't get enough of the one ring I guess.

My favorite movie(s) would be a tie between Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho and Frank Capra's It's A Wonderful Life. The former I played on a loop last night to see me off to sleep. Hope you eventually got some rest.
