I literally sleep an hour a day... i am losing it -- Posted by Ska Ninja at 3:17 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 That sucks! -- Posted by Lally at 3:17 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 sleeping pill FTW. -- Posted by carracer at 3:17 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Sounds like you need to drop something. So, you know, you don't drop dead. -- Posted by tell me again at 3:17 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 and lw! now u gotta juggle lw! watcha gon do omggg -- Posted by GemmaDILEMMA at 3:18 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 I dont get a lot of sleep, but i have disturbing dreams -- Posted by baby tee at 3:19 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Quote: from carracer at 11:17 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Sounds like you need to drop something. true, r u really in a serious relationship?? -- Posted by danny240591 at 3:19 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 thats similar to me i only sleep about 2 hours a day -- Posted by Justinc08 at 3:19 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Maybe you should only have a social life every other weekend. Take some as time to rest. -- Posted by michbeat88 at 3:19 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 only the second time i'm ever on LW. what i mean is like now,i'm done with everything i need to do, but i can't fall asleep -- Posted by Angel Star at 3:20 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 aww thats bad -- Posted by michbeat88 at 3:21 pm on Feb. 16, 2009   true, r u really in a serious relationship?? yes i really am in a very serious relationship... -- Posted by grinzbie at 3:21 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 welcome to collegE? -- Posted by tell me again at 3:22 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 you should leave 1-2hours before sleep for resting your mind, like doing something light, not being on the computer or TV, not working on anything, just chilling out. But if this problem has been going on for a while, and you can't sleep, then you may have insomnia (from stress or other causes), its worth doing some research about it, try a sleeping pill, or talk to a doctor about it -- Posted by michbeat88 at 3:23 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 its not college, its university and i have been here for 3 years already, but obviously its the first year that i am prim... eeeeeeeeeeck! just six more months of this torture! -- Posted by tell me again at 3:26 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Quote: from michbeat88 at 3:23 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 its not college, its university and i have been here for 3 years already, but obviously its the first year that i am prim... eeeeeeeeeeck! just six more months of this torture! "college" means university in america. If you aren't exaggerating about 1hr/night it can fuck you up a bit if you keep it up. You should probably lighten your load, unless you want to try avoiding a breakdown -- Posted by michbeat88 at 3:28 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 ok, terminology difference... trust me i am not exaggerating. It's 01h27 now, I need to be up at 05h00. and i haven't slept yet, not even remotely tired yet. -- Posted by tell me again at 3:32 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 youre high on adrenaline. get a grip. -- Posted by tell me again at 3:35 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 i find that being on the computer at 1am makes me all buzzed and weird and unable to sleep. maybe you should actually try to sleep, instead of talk about it, because your system must be a bit strained and out of it if you've been sleeping so little. it's just high and energetic from the wrong sources, like a caffeine buzz or something, its inadequate and i think you can tell that its fucking you up in the daytime.   it sounds like you just wanna talk about your huge load of obligations instead of actually try to sleep and look after yourself. -- Posted by carracer at 3:39 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 Quote: from tell me again at 3:35 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 i find that being on the computer at 1am makes me all buzzed and weird and unable to sleep. maybe you should actually try to sleep, instead of talk about it, because your system must be a bit strained and out of it if you've been sleeping so little. it's just high and energetic from the wrong sources, like a caffeine buzz or something, its inadequate and i think you can tell that its fucking you up in the daytime. it sounds like you just wanna talk about your huge load of obligations instead of actually try to sleep and look after yourself.   Also, bright lights send chemicals into the brain keeping you awake. Staying on the computer is one of the worst things you could do when trying to go to sleep. -- Posted by perpetual moonshine at 4:21 pm on Feb. 16, 2009 I solve my workload problem by taking Tylenol PM, a melatonin tablet, and sitting in a completely dark room for about 20 minutes. Its relaxing, and it makes me very sleepy. Maybe you should try it sometime.
