            How about drinking a glass of wine before you go to bed ? That seems to help me or drinking your favorite drink before retiring

              I'm up all night on porn and then work all day on mainstream.... I'm really getting strung out here.

              I can literally nap at a moments notice and then wake up again a minute later to continue with whatever.

                I try to be in bed and sleeping by 1am and be up for about 9 am. I used to go to bed around 5am and sleep all day like that but, I felt like I was a freak. Stay up for 24 hours and go to bed early and get up early. That's how I broke that cycle.

                    apparently you can't drink on Metformin, which I have started taking recently.

                    Can't do warm milk because I am lactose intolerent. Valium?

                      Buy some 3mg melatonin tablets and take one 30 minutes before you want to go to bed. If you still have trouble, take another one. Do that at the same time the next night and I'm 99% sure you'll have a normal sleeping pattern within 3-5 days.

                      I've inherited bad insomnia from my dads side of the family. It was typical for me to stay awake for 4 days at a time at least once every 2-3 weeks. No coffee or anything either, just couldn't sleep. I got a bunch of different medications but the best was the cheap ass melatonin pills from the supermarket.

                      Add some valerian and you'll be sleepy AND it'll take all the edge off. I wouldn't recommend adding kava in the UK though. They use the bark not the root over there so you're libel to kill your liver.

                        yeah, I used to live like that for years but at somepoint last year I managed to get into a normalish cycle of going to bed by 2am and being awake by 9/10am and it was much better. Even if it is just because I could get more done around the house and in town and still work. Now, my body has just slipped back.

                          Get away from your daily routine for a few days or better two weeks. Leave your computer at home. That's supposed to help.

                              true..though it is more passing out than sleep and never feels deep.

                                I've lived off 4-6 hours of sleep a night for years - my body just never lets me sleep for long periods. I could live off naps like Einstein.

                                  There's two medications you can take that will literally knock you on your ass... Serequel (sp?) is one of em, if you take one pill at about 11, you'll be a zombie by 12.

                                  The other one is resperadol (sp?) which isnt as strong, but is pretty good when it comes to helping you sleep.

                                  Both of em are perscription, if you dont want to get those, just get ambien... I tried ambien and all it did was give me halucinations. Nothing quite like a pile of laundry crawling across your floor when your lying in bed trying to sleep.

                                        If your a mailer its the best time to work.

                                        The internet is at its fastest at night usually..

                                        so 400 bucks an hour compared to 200 an hour during the day
                                        Night time is the best time...

                                        not to mention you can get more done with the peace and quiet of the night..

                                        I find myself rotating from nights to days since some things have to be done during the day.

                                        I say turn your insomnia into something positive..
                                        Is your sponser doing these kind of numbers for you?

                                          a polyphasic sleep schedule.

                                          The essence of it is a short 3 hour core sleep time in the early morning, and several 20 minute naps (every 4 hours) spaced throughout the day.

                                          Polyphasic sleep is not very common and the most cited examples are from popular pop-myth stories of Thomas Edison and DaVinci never sleeping, just taking catnaps throughout the day.

                                          ----



                                          Edison's sleep aversion

                                          . . . Thomas Alva Edison's goal for producing the electric light bulb was to eliminate "unproductive sleep."

                                          He felt that since he only need 4-5 hours per night, that his invention of electric lights would encourage people to sleep less and be more productive.

                                          "Most people overeat 100 percent and oversleep one hundred percent because they like it," he wrote.

                                          "That extra 100 percent makes them unhealthy and inefficient.

                                          The person who sleeps eight or ten hours a night is never fully asleep and never fully awake?

                                          they have only different degrees of doze through the twenty-four hours."


                                          ----


                                          I am lucky to get 3-5 hours of sleep..

                                          I stay up 24-30 hours then sleep 3-5 hours, damn internal alarm clock !

                                                    The other one is resperadol (sp?) which isnt as strong, but is pretty good when it comes to helping you sleep.

                                                    Both of em are perscription, if you dont want to get those, just get ambien... I tried ambien and all it did was give me halucinations. Nothing quite like a pile of laundry crawling across your floor when your lying in bed trying to sleep.
                                                    Resperadol is an anti psychotic or anti hallucinegenic. I don't see how it would help you sleep. I know because I used to take it.

                                                    If you want to go to sleep get "sominex" the only damn over the counter sleep aid that worked for me. Screww all the others.

                                                      I had the same problem, I couldn't sleep at night for more than an hour or two, it was getting really bad. The Dr. gave me some anti-depression medication that said wouldn't be bad for me and would help make me tired. It's called Ammitriptoline (I don't remember if this is how it is spelled),

                                                      I've been taking it for years just to sleep. Works good, but I never had any depression problems, I thought it was odd that they were giving me it for this problem.

                                                        I'm up late always, sometimes to 10-11 am... but I am not willing to take med.s and kill my liver. Melatonine is good when I feel sleepy, it helps me to get some quality sleep once in a while.. but who said we have to sleep every night? You can work, read, listen to music and accept it. When I have errands, I don't even sleep for 1-2 days.
