LOL! Well other then this. i hope you all have a good morning when you get up. I hope i can get more sleep tonight (this morning actualy) and tomorow (actualy today!) as last night i only got 3 hours of sleep, spent the day with my dad, it was actualy nice for a change. we talked about a lot of stuff, and he took me out for sushi.. i love sushi, i had a sushimi combo (4 peaces of salmon sushimi, a calafornia role, pice of tuna, piece of salmon, piece of shrimp, and dad added on a extra sushi for me, i forget the name of it! *sigh* ) and ya, was good, had tummy problems last night, though im stopped up today, so that is kinda good... i want to go out for sushi tomorow but hubby probably wont take me.. we are REALY broke.. we have like NO cash at all, and morgage is going to bounce but his dad will lend us the money...

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Kat, I wish I had some secret solution to getting enough sleep. I know the doctors all tell you to go to bed at the same time every night, make sure your bedroom is used only for sleeping (so that means all that lovey-dovey stuff belongs on the living room sofa or the kitchen table, LOLOLOL), etc. One thing that lots of people think help them is an alcoholic drink or a glass of wine but actually they are stimulants. As far as the other rules about bedtime, leaving the bedroom just for sleeping, etc...well, none of that works for me. I have tried them all. So I just do what works for me. Some nights I can lie down and my body relaxes almost immediately and sleep comes quickly...I may not sleep for more than an hour though before I'm up again, though. I read until I am sleepy but I don't worry about it if I fall asleep with the book lying on my chest or if the light is left on. I also watch TV...movies, games shows, whatever catches my eye and when I didn't have a TV that had a timer on it, I would just use one of the $5.00 lamp timers and set it to turn off about midnight...usually I would be asleep by then. Now there seems to be no sure way for me to get to sleep and sleep for more than several hours at a time...3 hours at a stretch is a very long time for me. I just attribute it to these DDD diseases. I just roll with the punches. I've lived all my life in a household where sleeping patterns were mixed. Is it the diseases...or is it genetics? I don't know but I just hope that I can rest when I head to bed...hope you can too, Kat. Hugs, Jane > again for the seccond night in a row i can sleep. its like almost 2am, and i > cant sleep! > what is wrong with me? *sigh* > Hubby and i had friends over and i drank a bit too much, but now that that > wore off, i cant sleep! *sigh* booze makes me sleepy and usaly helps me > sleep, but right now i cant take a sleeping pill (drank a bit too much, > usualy i dont indulge ths mutch ither!) and well i dont want to get a bad > reaction to it.. > > *sigh* it sucks being on the west coast... all you easties are asleep and no > one is realy here from the west coast... *sigh* > Hubby is alseep, and the tv is boring.... as good as it gets is on tv. and > im not that intersted... > well somewhat.. now i wish i had a new tv with a timer on it, so i could set > it to go off in a hour or so, and i could just close my eyes and try to > sleep. but not with my old hunk of junk!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Jane & Kat, I used to have no trouble sleeping, but it's been getting worse over the last few years. I also do whatever works at the time. After a few nights of not enough sleep, I get desperate & take Ambien - usually it works. The last week or so when I finally manage to sleep, it's not good sleep; I wake up over & over, & have nightmares that leave me as tired as if I'd stayed awake. Then of course I walk around work half asleep all day. ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
