I have heard that a lot of the time people do "you know what" just to get all tired out so they can sleep at night. I don't really know what I'm asking, maybe....is it true? or just a nasty idea, someone had in their head.

Sex usually works for me.

It May Help tire your hands, but once the exhaustion fades, everything just returns to normal. sometimes it works (70% for me), and sometimes not.

a friend of mine said it's great to help out with sleeping problems.
My boyfriend thinks it's a great way to get to sleep lol

Orgasm (with my boyfriend or by myself) works. It's also a great stress-reliever.

I don't know how women do "it" exactly but I just can't go for a quickie, to really enjoy it I need at least 30mins for me to get tired and then to enjoy the orgasm itself. Then it's clean up and I can usually sleep.

So take you time and enjoy! But make sure you're enjoying it while you do it and just not racing to the end.

I think this is just free pleasure,not sure if it helps you sleep? well i wouldn't say it helps me sleep. A lot of fun though and it's free i guess the best things in life are free...have fun...

Orgasms do relieve stress and helps the pain in my legs and feet due to MS. A number of my medications have messed me up on the masterbation and orgasm bit.

never worked for me - i was ready for seconds an my girlfriends were ready to pass out. really need to factor in these, drugs and rock and roll occurred prior to hitting the sack.

deleted_user 09/06/2008

yes it helps me..although i wouldnt call it a cure. like someone else said..it's just not enough. like marathon sex does though...haha...

Believe it or not I once went to a male therapist about my insomnia & the first thing he out of his mouth was "have you tried mast**bat**n?" I could hardly believe what I was hearing.
I thought ew.. what a creep(& it turned out he really was.)
But since then I read a little about it & it sometimes helps..but it hasn't been a cure for me.
