Can't sleep, took it over two hours ago and just feel a little sluggish but still can't sleep.

Every time I lay down and close my eyes a million thoughts just starting going through my head and I feel more awake than when my eyes were open.

:music:I'm so tired I just can't sleep:music:

I'd be kind of afraid of the effects.

I took two muscle relaxers also and those don't seem to be doing anything either.

I'm no druggie or anything FWIW, these are all prescribed to me for a back injury I received in a car accident last year.

Not a druggie? Obviously you need to become one before you can actually understand such things. :p

Ever tried a bit of alcohol? Obviously don't try it now that you've taken medication...

Note: I'm not a freakin doctor so before you do, if you're on any other meds or anything at all, talk to your doc or something. I just gave an idea and nothing more.

Never said I haven't ;)


But at this stage in life, I'm well beyond using drugs for recreational use.

:laugh: I think this is possibly the best reply I've seen in a thread today.

I don't drink FWIW and have nothing to drink even if I wanted to.

This happens to me every night, It sucks hard.

Sleeping pills work ok for me but I HATE the hangover I get from them. Almost better off geting no sleep.
