Insomniacs Anonymous

how much or long do you insomniacs sleep?

crazy!! i love dead silence when i go to sleep...

 

Hi, my name is Oswald Obryan and I´m an insomniac.

Its been pissing me off beond belief this week. Since Monday, I havn´t been able to get to sleep until at least 4am (yesterday it was 5) and I have to wake up at 6.

then I´m fucking exausted the entire day, come home, pass out on the couch for 3 hours, wake up around 7pm, and cant get to sleep till 4. This week has sucked major ass.

 

Oh god that shit happens to me all the time- I hate it lol

 

I´m also coming down with a terrible cold because of the lack of sleep..

well, I´m off to lay in bed for 4 hours wishing I was asleep.

peace out

 

Fuck that shit. I can't sleep when there's no noise. I suffer from psychophysiological insomnia, which just means I have a hard time going to sleep because I think too much. My mind is too loud, so tv/music gives me something else to listen to, besides the random nonsense that goes on in my head.

 

that is why i stay awake too, a mind that won't quit...
sometimes i just give my mind in fully to impossible day-dreams/fantasies... and focusing on imagining/visualizing some outrageous intricate scenario will put me to sleep.....

 

I'm glad that works for you, because it sure as fuck doesn't work for me. lol Imagining/visualizing shit like that is what keeps me awake.

 

I find it impossible to sleep on my own unless I've been up for more than a day or something. I make scenarios in my head because I'm bored.

It seems weird, but listening to stand up comedy on my ipod helps me sleep better than music. The rhythm of it makes me want to dance and I can't fall asleep..lol Even calm music. Just the talking helps me sleep.

 

thats me.. I have to have the tv on (really quietly though, just enough volume that it drowns out my brain)

 

I think I'm getting sick. Probably going to bed early tonight.. 2:16 being early for me. Night insomniacs. Good luck tonight!
