    Default Insomnia

    Anyone here experience insomnia? I am right now. I have to get up at 6:45 am for school and here it is, 3:24 am, and I'm not tired one bit. There was another time, summer vacation two years ago, when I was sick and had a HUGE case of insomnia...I ended up staying up for 32 hours I think it was.

    What cases of insomnia have you experienced?

    I've never experienced insomnia in such a way that you have, but I've had some quite bad cases nonetheless. I remember just lying in my bed for hours on end, not being able to fall asleep. There's nothing more frustrating!


    I heard somewhere that insomnia is caused by stress, and also the fear of losing sleep.. So, you actually jinx yourself.

    o.o really? I'm not stressed though...I am a bit afraid of losing sleep beause I have a bit of a cold 'n my nose is all stuffed up, but that's it...well it's off to bed with me...4 am, so I need to at least attempt to sleep...I'll probably just end up asking to stay home from school 'cause I'll be dog tired 'n probably won't even get up in time

    I don't have insomnia. I just don't have a lot of time for sleep. So I'm always awake, typing here, typing there, writing this or dreaming up that. I get my sleep at 2-3 hour intervals.

    All the time. It's much worse if I'm not sleeping at home.

    As you all know, your Good Friend Devil Man is an ABSOLUTE STUD!

    And he experiences insomnia when he is in bed with a Beautiful Goddess who wants to make mad PASSIONATE love to him all night long, for a Night with Devil Man is a truly Heavenly Night with must be Cherished For the Rest of Eternity

    Ergo...

    The Beautiful Goddess enjoys every single PRECIOUS minute of her time with Devil Man, for Devil Man is a TRULY AMAZING MAN

    Which means Devil Man gets no sleep at all

    Thus...

    Insomnia!

    But when Devil Man is in bed alone, he sleeps soundly and peacefully

    I get insominia every time I'm on an early shift, especially if I have just finished a late shift. I just think my body like to torture me.

    Technically as a medical condition insomnia has to be a significant period of time. Though there is such thing as transient insomnia...

    Anyway, I have rarely had insomnia. There are nights where I have been stressed out, but the next morning I am exhausted so I tend to get sleep that day / night.

    I remember the character Joel from our board. He tends to get chronic insomnia.

    Try working out incessantly, doing exhausting activities (whatever they may be), and relaxing activities like hot baths. Don't do anything around your room that isn't sleep related, so you keep the association that bedroom = sleep room.

    Anything else is probably largely psychological and I have no justification making suggestions about that.

    A few summers ago, I had trouble sleeping. I would end up staying up until 4 in the morning because I'd be scared and too hot and such. ;__;

    I used to have transient insomnia when I was twelve or eleven. I think it lasted about a month, probably less. I don't remember much of it, only that I just watched television all night.

    I've found that I've been able to sleep more easily lately but it used to be really bad. 2:00am was the general minimum, but sometimes I got to sleep at 4:00am. I still do get to sleep that late sometimes but I often have so much to do I am exhausted so I just fall asleep from exhaustion.
