All you insomnia having bastards should start programming. I don't have functional insomnia, but somehow coding started me working into the 2/3am range without realizing it.

That or you can take up starcraft 2.

(or day trading forex, but that shit hurts when it drops)

[dranoelsy]

thank based god i dont have to wake up early later

[okonomi]

What's worse: insomnia or having nothing to do whilst experiencing it?

[shinobi2000]

what to do when you get into an unbreakable cycle of local jet lag? -- keep staying up all night, getting a few hours of sleep before work, then working, then sleeping all afternoon/evening and the whole thing starts again!

I have been waiting 7 months for my insurance to get me in to this sleep clynic at a local hospital that looks like something out of a tv show... i go over at 330 today and they put electrodes on my head and a little belt to monitor my crazy mind... i get to chill out, eat, watch tv and walk around the hospital all day till i fall asleep AT THE FUCKING HOSPITAL (my first night ever at one).... this has taken so long to get to happen, and thanks to my EU insurance its all free, shit back home would cost DOUGH.

will let ya all know what happens when i get the final interview next month... shits taken forever to get going.... totally nuts.

I havent been able to sleep lately. My brain just wont shut up and it goes into carnival mode when I lay down. Weed doesnt help either.

it's times like these when i wish a food coma actually existed...

[Chris-Craft]

im surprised ive never come across this thread before...i have abnormal sleeping habits

[weidna]

har. yall funny. wanted 2 quote a few of yall because i can soooooo relate but got lazy. specifically on the usually widely accepted means of initiating sleep (smokin weed, eatin hella food), they never really effect me in that way. after indulging in a few bowls/accompanying XL pizzas with my roommate, i'll generally just sit around feeling uncomfortably full and a bit of that terrible robotic post-marijuana high for an extended period of time.

hate it. wish my bodily reactions made more sense. but dey don't

[Kasper]

not sure where you read about eating before going to sleep, but that is one big cause of insomnia. shouldn't eat a heavy meal less than 3-4 hours before going to bed. Not to mention that your body have a much harder time breaking down calories when sleeping, increasing your chances of weight gain.

7 hours of class in 7 hours. cant wait for tomorrow to be over...

similar situation prior to taking melatonin, although it only happened about 2 nights a week.

if by "carnival mode" you mean thinking about everything without actually realising anything, it helps. except the dreaming is strange, very very strange. not nightmares, just deeply psychological.

[indesertum]

weed and/or wine is a bad idea. it might help you fall asleep at first, but it disrupts rem sleep and either all your sleep will be negated and you'll be super tired throughout the next day or you'll keep waking up in the middle of the night

[breams]

Having a Vietnamese sub at 1:30am with extra chilis - that'll do it.

[HOLY]

06:28am, blaaaaahh.
