chronic insomnia?

[The Tuggernaut]

We're having a break here too.
Lucky, 'cos I would never stay up this late on the net on a school night.
With all the exams and what not next year, I need plenty of sleep

up at 3:30am for work...go to bed at 10p wake up usually twice.......catch up on sleep on the weekends. Wouldn't it be great to stay awake for days and not gety sick or die? Think of all of the projects you could get caught up on.

3:30 am? Damn, I admire you.
I don't think I could ever do that.

One of the thing that seems to help with mild insomnia... not as much with pervasive cases. Is to begin following a nightly sleep ritual. Basically about 1-1/2 hours before you want to be asleep begin to dim or turn off lights, get ready for bed (brush teeth, etc,) and find a relaxing activity to do in bed (reading, etc.). The body is naturally tuned to respond to lower light and if you are able to relax in that environment it helps to ease people into sleep.

Other things are to stay away from naps, caffeine (espeically close to bed time) and try to work into a regular (getting up and going to bed at the same time) sleep schedule. If those things don't work then its a good idea to meet with a physician or counselor to see what other options might be out there.

Well it's 2:41am my time right now, and I'm always up this late. Even on mornings when I have to be at work at 9am. I definitely recharge on the weekends, too, as I sleep 10+ hours. I do love sleeping, I wish I could do more of it these days. Luckily I'm on Christmas break, so I get to do whatever the heck I want for a while. It's nice.

Do just make it in bars or do you shape it into different figures?

I make it in a bathtub and sell bars to boutique stores.
