If you have insomnia, only post here when you should be sleeping, and post what's keeping you awake. This is for fun.
 
Sleep? Wazzat? ;)

I like the late night/early morn bit cuz it's ncie and quiet adn the Internts are all MINE!

Oh, yeah, booze and habanero sausage gravy may hava influnce.
 
I slept about 1 hour in the last 24........

I've had a pinched nerve in my neck since about 6pm last night and couldn't sleep....

I'm now sitting at work with a massive headache and just told my boss i'm going to my chiropractor then going home.......Every movement is total mind numbing pain......
 
I rarely can't sleep, I may only end up sleeping for an hour, but eventually I'll fall asleep so I won't be posting here much :(

Been there before, hope it gets better soon!
 
I've always been a night owl. especially now that I have been laid off since the week before Thanksgiving. I get up at 7:30 am get my oldest daughter off to school and play with my other 2 for a while til they go watch TV. I stay up till around 2:30 - 3:00 am cuz I just cannot sleep and am usually trying to unwind from the day with my other daughter (she has ADHD, Anxiety, and ODD one hell of a combo) My wife works most of the day ....she is a bus driver and she works at sub shop here in Brunswick (the best damn Subs around!!!!! Savory Subs)
 
I'm computer deprived now..had to reinstall XP and all the updates all day so finally have it up and going. One last dog is outside, have to wait for her to get in too. If I go to bed I have nothing new to read. Best excuse of all, diabetics don't sleep like they should..and that's the truth. Besides I couldn't be reading posts if I was in bed. I think we're all night owls!

Weed+Alcohol cures insomnia, trust me im a doctor!

Alcohol disrupts the sleep cycle. It may make you drowsy at first, but you'll have more difficulty sleeping later on in the night.


A little warm milk or melatonin would work better.

I give that to my daughter to help her stay asleep...
 
I tend to just stick a fork in the outlet to stay awake :shocked: :lol:
J/K!

I could go to bed at 3 am & wake up at 6 am or 7 am, no problem.
as soon as theres sunlight I just wake up, I cant sleep if theres sunlight or any form of light.
 
The lopalin (sp?) in hops is what makes you slightly tired when you drink. But Pam's right, it disrupts you sleep cycle....in my case it cases me to wkae up an pee three times a night b/c I drink soo much :lol:

Weed doesn't help me to sleep b/c it just makes my internal monolauge that much louder.

My trick to sleep is I play our a movie in my head that I direct. It's basically like dreaming but since you are awake, I guess you would call it very visual imagining. Usually puts me out within 10 minutes if I foruc on it and only it.
