Yup. THree hours of troubled sleep.
Then burning eyed wandering through the house.
Am now listening to my Prince b-sides collection (God instrumental playing now) to see how long it takes til breaking point (point when I fall asleep sitting up)

And I need to call the peeps at work to tell them I aint coming to work; I am too wired.

Insomnia

I've had it bad for weeks now

I managed one hour, woke up and needed to pee...then I couldn't stop thinking about what happened earlier. Damnit

welcome to the club

Welcome 2 the Dawn

It's 5:28 in da morning here in France & i'm still here... as usual...

U ain't alone, i know dat shit...

Just think about the OrgQueen & masturbate, that might help

The mosquito's do not help either.

I hate them zooming.

I hear there's a lot of them in Holland... they're here too but only in the woods, I have none in my apartment regardless of how much I keep the balcony door open at night.

Teacher said:

It's the water. Reason they love my house somewhat more is cuz it is ground level AND damp.

HamsterHuey said:

Yeah I thought as much, about the water... ground floor is BAD. You need one of those electric mosquito killers. Or a personal servant, a hottie with an oiled body who stands guard over you as you sleep waving one of those huge sunshades slowly

Teacher said:

LoL
THat would just irritate the hell outa me now, state I am in...

"Don't drip the oil on the floor! "

HamsterHuey said:

Make it edible and you can lick it off him - might as well enjoy yourself if you can't sleep anyway

nut yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but no, but yeah, but no.

I do not like them types. I like them slightly scruffy.

I've had it for almost a year or so now.

Read a book, usually sends me off to dreamland.

Watch boring tv.

Read book. Check. Until eyes watered.

Watched tv. Check. Until finally The Omen II drove me to sleep.

Then slept a few hours, then woke up again. This is the fourth night.

HamsterHuey said:

LMAO, you really are cranky now.... fine, have Chris Meloni standing there with the palm leaf, in no more than boxers and a two day stubble. Happier?

purplesweat said:

and ouch, that sucks. I used to have long spells too. Now it is just days.

HamsterHuey said:

Hmm...maybe a warm milk drink?

I think he fell asleep! :tiptoe:

Was doing a bit of household work, seeing if physical labour might tire me out.

HamsterHuey said:

Damn, I'm sorry. Is it working?

Teacher said:

I'm still here, so no.

Thank goodnees I've got sleeping pills against insomnia.

scififilmnerd said:

Yup. I used some too to get back into a normal sleeping pattern.

Xanax dude. I suffered insomnia too long until I finally gave in.

I hope you've been getting sleep Hamster. I haven't been able to sleep the past 2 nights. It's soooo hot in my bedroom. I wish I had air conditioning. I wake up every hour. Ughhhhh!!

The thing is, the less sleep I get, the more I get done at work. I'm so hyper. Is that weird?

Well, let's see. I already have the googly eyes and the dark circles. I just wish I was that skinny.

Insomnia sucks monkey balls

I used to suffer from it for about two months. Now only occasionally.
But back then it was ridiculous...it came to a point that I would go to bed convinced that I wold not fall asleep. The wost thing was that constant flow of thought in my head. The weirdest thoughts. Stories made up just to keep me occupied. bzzzzz.....Now I see the ocean and I am a handsome pirate my ship sailing towards the horizon. Well hello there mr. talking mice, most pleased to see you again.....bzzzzz

At times I just couldn't stand it. All I could think about was: "Why am I not asleep yet? It must be like 4:30 already. Go to sleep you fucking moron, you're gonna look like a zombie tomorrow at work. Am I asleep yet? Obviously not. Fuck!"

Then after a sleepless, restless night my eyes would burn all day and every thing would piss me off. I would get so tired by the midday, that all I could think of was to go to bed. But if went to bed I just couldn't do fall asleep. I'd be too paranoid that I will no manage to doze off. I would lay down, and try to relax to some calm instrumental music but no luck. I once even bought "The sounds of the Amazon forest" CD convinced that this would put me to sleep: By second listen I wanted the Amazon forest burned to the ground.

Fortunately after some time (a period which seemed like forever) the insomnia just stopped. I have no idea what caused it. All I know is that I do not want it back.

Hope you sleep well, Herman and all the other org insomniacs.

I'm lucky if I get three or four unbroken hours of sleep.

My body clock has disappeared recently. Ten minutes can feel like ten hours and vice-versa.

I find that listening to chatter at really low volumes helps me nod off sometimes. I recommend the Feast Of Fools podcast, although sometimes it's so funny, I don't want to drift away.

I never go to bed before one a.m. because if I go to bed any sooner, I just wake-up earlier.

My dreams have also been incredibly vivid and memorable recently too.

Uhmmmm
I am finally getting sleepy.

And getitng there while tripping on The Cure.
