Insomnia

[esoter1c]

How do you fall asleep ?

I can't.

[tiedye]

dude.. I know. . .

[Roxxie]

Looks like everyone is having problems sleeping these days

[tiedye]

I could probably sit up all day and night and not even notice if I didn't take some nyquil gel caps to coax myself to sleep.

[mojo]

I oversleep most days.
suckers.

[*SunShyne*]

I only smoke weed when I need to,
And I need to get some rest, yo, where's the cess.
I confess, I burnt a hole in the mattress,
Yes, yes, it was me, I plead guilty,
And on the count of three I pull back the duvet,
Make my way to the refrigerator,
One dry potato inside, no lie
Not even bread, jam,
When the light above my head went bam!
I can't sleep, something's all over me,
Greasy, insomnia please release me,
And let me dream about making mad love on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there's no relief,
I'm wide awake in my kitchen,
It's black and I'm lonely,
Oh, if I could only get some sleep,
Creaky noises make my skin creep,
I need to get some sleep,
I can't get no sleep....

Just for the record, popping pills at clubs will NOT repeat NOT help you sleep

I beg to differ... neo citron knocks me on my fucking ass

[gnosis]

^Aye. Same here.

So, WTF, folks?!
Seems like there's lots of us having a hard time sleepin, here!

Self-hypnosis works, if you want to give yourself over to the concept and take the time to do it.

PM me, if you're interested.
I'm not gonna bother posting it, here.

ive hardly left my bed the last week and i nap too much so now im awake all night! fuck sakes. fucking myspace doesnt help, neither does having friends overseas in the middle of their day talking to me. neither does drinking caffeinated beverages, neither does listening to music that i can't help not moving around too. this sleep thing is overated theres far too much that i could do instead.

[justShell]

i could go the meletonin route. but then i would sleep half of tomorow away and i need to be in bed early tomorow night to get back to the horrible place my job.

[Courtney]

the only thing that keeps me awake is caffiene
hence why im up still
i drank a coffee at 3 and had some green tea at 8 and im still wide awake it really effects me...

if you cut coffee out completely you might find u sleep better...
also if i really can't sleep i take gravol it works well

[justShell]

^
maybe try poking your eyes out. or has that feeling passed? you might pass out from the pain.?

[stabmyhead]

The only time I ever really pass out is when I'm playing an RPG. If I'm really tired but can't sleep, I'll turn on the TV, plug in an RPG and lie down to play. Guarenteed I'll pass right out with the controller still in my hand.

[HADES]

Pulling 12 hour shifts usually makes me pass out

[lildonkey]

i usually go to bed at, at least 5am... and then i sleep in till like 2-3pm...

it sucks :(

I used to have a fabulous self-hypnosis technique my father taught me when I was a kid. For some reason, since my drug days (:() I haven't been able to get it to work. My mind takes hours to focus sufficiently instead of minutes now.

Now it's generally booze or NyQuil, neither of which I'm particularly happy about using as a sleep aid. Whenever I ease up on drinking the insomnia comes back with an evil vengeance.

[-evil-duerr-]

smoke some reefer an hour or 2 before you wanna go to sleep, so that the burnout is synchronous to your bed-time.

usually works, but not always.

When I really can't get to sleep I just stay up, smoke pot and do something like write or play music until I've had my fill. Then it's slightly easier to go to sleep because I've spent a good portion of the energy on the hobby, there's not enough energy to keep me up dwelling about life.

My sleep wake cycles are fucked up because i'm an RN. During two out of the four shifts in a set that I work I have to get up at five thirty am. Then I have a switch over day where I have to get up by five thirty pm. I usually try to stay up a bit later than usual so I can sleep a lot during the day.

My days off are usually spent feeling quite jet-lagged and trying to get my body back to a regular shedule.

I also think the amount of sugar free red bull i've been drinking is affecting the quality of my sleep. But I need it to function now. :P

I wish i could read what I write about at those hours.
...I wish I didn't drift off on the table eventually and wake up with one side of my cheek in the blue paint, and my hair in the green.
Sleeping is impssible..THEY ALL SAVE THE GOOD MUSIC FOR THIS HOUR.. college radio wize....i blame them usually..Then i have one day when I crash....and I tumble downwards into the abyss of unwakeable and decaf oscar inspired grog.
