Yeah, my problem is that when I sleep, I lose control over my emotions. And I have an extremely good reason to want to be in control of my emotions right now. Hell my brain's effectively under marshal law right now. But that's a whole other can of worms...

I'll collapse from exhaustion sooner or later.

Well, you asked for it:

Let's just say my family's been fvcked up by anyone's standards for the last several years.

ie: My dad's called my mom a b!tch to her face while she was doubling over in pain from her cancer. Multiple times. Over the last 2 years. In front of my sister and me. And that's just the first droplet on the tip of the iceberg.

So yeah, the fact that I have to make a conscious effort to not knock his teeth out practically every time I see him should count for something. And now I'm home for the summer, so I'll be living with the bastard. And I row 5 days a week and am learning Krav Maga. I could do some damage.

And then there's the fact that I know I shouldn't even be thinking about this type of sh!t, but I do almost 24/7, regardless of what I'm doing.

That's it in a nutshell. Sorry if I depressed you.
 
You fight being tired? Man I wish I was tired. I've had trouble sleeping as long as I can remember.

Keep thinking that. That way when your dad knocks you on your ass you can chalk it up as a fluke.

You think you're the only one with problems like that? HAHAHA.
I've probably had, and still got, problems just as bad.
Anyways, I get from 2 to 5 hours of sleep a night every night, except when i collapse from exhaustion. then i get 4-8. That's about once a month.

EDIT:: Yeah, this amount of sleep was originally, for the first 5 years or so, by choice.
 
I stay up that late because I have problems too...

It's called a job, responsibility, and life. Stop being a pvssy, I get off work every night at 12:30 then I turn around and do a few hours of homework before getting up and going to 8am classes, then 4pm starts the whole process over again. I have problems, everyone has problems.

If its such a big deal, man up and say something to your dad. And if you don't like it don't come home, its his house and his rules. Your mom is an adult and can make her own decisions.

Cliffs:
Stop whining
 
Sometimes. I work nights (am on break right now) and I find it easier for my body to stay in sync if I sleep on my off days and stay up on my off nights.
 
I don't get tired until really late; I'm a night person, but thanks to work I have to get up at 7. So usually I sleep from around 3 - 7:30. Woo! 🙁
 
I used to, but I can't do it as much anymore. All-nighters were easy before my last semester of college (I'm freshly graduated and headin' to grad school). Now I just sort of fall asleep whenever I'm sleepy. I wish I could force myself to stay up like I used to be able to, the allure of a nice bed is too great now.
 
I have a paper to write... but I get the motivation to work on it in short, weirdly spaced bursts. Now is one of those times... and I have to get up at 11am 🙁
 
Sometimes I'll be physically and mentally tired, but I just don't want to go to sleep yet. I'll watch some tv, get on the computer, watch more tv....etc
