insomnia....help please

[bobofoosh]

So I can't sleep and it's after 7 in the mrning and I have a midterm in 4 hours. I don't need to study none and I just want to get some rest, but I can't fall asleep for the life of me.

It's not even one of those good day-before-christmas-or-birthday-kind-of-not-sleeps this is like I'm-super-tired-and-want-to-go-to-sleep-but-can't ones.

Oy.....

Well here goes again....if anyone has a cure please post it.

if you sleep now, you might not wake up

It's bad news. You have to do something boring for about half an hour. The mind has to be wound down before you go to bed. So, read a book, watch a mundane TV program, have something light to eat.

my cure > ~-
works like a charm for me - & I find that less hours of sleep will suffice
if I have, I hit the hay @ 2:00am & wake up @ 7:30, M-F - that's only 27.5 hrs for 5 days.
I usually sleep til 10:30 on weekends (scores: 3 xtra hours)
Total = 44.5 hours of sleep & 123.5 hours awake (browsing Anandtech = 123 hours )

Try spanking the monkey.

I will agree with the monkey concept.

I remember once being so tired I could not even spank the Monkey, but couldn't slepp either, till a friend gave me a Xanex! Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

 

[prodigy]

So tired that the monkey could not even be spanked? What is this nonsense you are speaking of?
