The Insomnia Thread

[OkayOkay]

4:15 am, went to bed at 3, couple quick dreams, wide awake now. Watching a recap of the Bulls running laps around the Heat.

Roll call. Shufon, Holy, Astro. Where you at.

[suremanok]

reviving this thread.

haven't been able to sleep. legs just feel restless. it only happens when i got class the next day and i got a longgggg day ahead of me (14 hours).

[shufon]

Coffee at 11:30PM. I think I've given up on even trying to get to sleep at a normal time now.

I've had chronic insomnia for the past several months, but ever since I was a kid I never slept the whole night through. I have no trouble getting to sleep, but I wake up a half dozen times and an hour before my alarm goes off.

I don't even drink the coffee, booooo.

The only times I sleep well is either when I smoke weed right before bed (which I don't often do) or once when I had these painkillers that made me feel like I was on a bed of silk.

I have had fairly severe problems with my sleep in the past years, nearly having to visit a hospital once because of sleep deprivation, not at all fun stuff, and zolpidem sucks... i can't ever drink caffeine and yeah i don't know why people smoke meth

how about melatonin? i've heard that work for a friend of mine, or you could always roll one before bed. that puts me to sleep within an hour, no problem.

[mr fluffernutter]

my friends who used melatonin told me that it works excellently the first couple of times you use it but as time goes on it works less and less effectively

[michaelttizzle]

i cant concentrate on anything and cant take any naps. im trying to study for an exam. i hoped that my insomnia ended last week when i went to bed at 12 for a couple of days in a row. its back at the worst timing possible and I cant even smoke, because of this damned job interview. whatever

[fobsquad]

^i thought you just got into college? fuck hs exams and a fuck a job that drug-tests. party on senior boy

[fobsquad]

actually wait i dropped out of college. dont listen to me

I suggest all of you get an ambien prescription. I get 8 hours every night now after 15 years of barely getting 2-4 hours.

[Ahlvahroe]

oh i hadnt seen this thread. I had the worst insomnia of my life this past summer, i went 10 days with 1 hour of sleep a night, it was terrible, my body was starting to shut down by like day 8 or so. i just remember that nothing people were telling me made sense, and i was constantly seeing random flashes of light for no reason, sucked.

[StrangeLove]

I started being unable to sleep this sucks. Just took some promethazine and dextramethomorphin so hopefully it knocks me out. This has been happening for like 2 weeks now

[bb_tt]

insomnia right now due to adderall. finals.. -__-

[akuma no uta]

I ran out of ambien and my pharmacy says my insurance won't cover it this early for a refill and fuck it's been 2 days of being awake and fuck I just need it I feel like a crazkhead fuck.

[soothsayer]

recently started taking caffeine pills. took 2 today, one at 9am and another at 6pm. went to 'sleep' 2 hours ago, ended up just thinking about a bunch of random shit and rolling around a bit…then said fuck it and just ate some corn flakes

[squirtlepk]

i hate thinking

[OkayOkay]

it's 6am and I'm nowhere close to tired. Drank a bunch of wine, got close, then...nothing. Now I'm clicking through hundreds of Kaskade remixes looking for one I heard earlier in the eve and not finding it.

[philosophiliac]

exam tomorrow. it's 12:40am (early times yet) but I have a baaaaaad feeling about this

[TruMoo]

generic brand ambiens <3 for those w/no health insurance.

insomnia right now due to adderall. finals.. -__-

been tryin to copp adderall. so hard these days...

[julzkind]

I've always been an insomniac, but being prescribed addy hasn't made it any easier….another reason other than anxiety that I've started smoking. but now I'm in my smoke room at 4:45am n even tho I'm rly high and tired, I'm still looking shit up online.

I'm thinking i get about 24hrs of sleep a week collectively...?

[jackg]

exam tomorrow. it's 12:40am (early times yet) but I have a baaaaaad feeling about this

[philosophiliac]

[jackg]

Mine was fine really should have done more work but its hard to muster motivation at this point in the semester.

[julzkind]

[Walt Thizzney]
