eGO and Sleep Deprivation

[Xzero]

All you guys so far have said if you can't fall asleep, you'd listen to music. I am the complete opposite. ;P

I can't sleep at all if there is any sort of sound. Especially the ticking of a clock. I switched over to a digital one because the ticking was so annoying.

At night, I like run through my mind, finding all the useless and stupid stuff I did that day. Then I say "I'll do that tomorrow, too." I do this until I run out of material.

I need some new material. I don't get to sleep quickly at all.

My friend told me that if you have a complete dark room, you'll fall asleep faster.

that theory is not true.
Alot of people cannot get to sleep without the lights on.
I Just have general sleeping issues due to real life problems But i have my tv on with a DVD On and timers on both the TV And DVD Player, I Put to a Hour but if im still up i renew it another hour. untill i fall asleep and they turn off themselves.

I'm an actual insomniac, partially caused by medication I have to take for ADHD and partially because I've always found sleeping nearly impossible.
Often I just mindlessly surf the internet, but I usually avoid posting because I don't know what mental state I might be in after 2 days of no sleep.

 

[Retribution]

frankly, at this age, everyone wants to sleep, but some find it impossible. Others, sleep a ridiculous amount but are still tired.
I have friends that have slept 1 hour in 5 days and are ridiculously hyper, and friends that get 10 hours a night and are still tired the next day.

Usually why I can't sleep is I unconsciously think of school, and frankly, school makes me piss my pants, soze I have to think about somethings. I usually end up thinking of the cello my beautiful, hot, wonderful, cello.... (I love my cello and obscene amount, like more than most people I know)
But when I have trouble falling asleep I usually listen to the wonderful Elgar Cello Concerto <3<3<3<3<3<3
I can't wait to play it!! only a few weeks away!! I'm so happy.

if you want to listen, the first movement is my favorite.

Happens to me all the time!! Alright, here is what works for me to fall alseep(sadly).I imagine myself swimming underwater in a HUGE pool. I imagine my legs getting tired, arms then my entire body getting tired from swimming and lack of air.

*poof*

Asleep
(My sleeping pills help too)

I vaguely remember posting yesterday before the forums got pushed back that I cant sleep without the noise of a fan. I even wake up if the electricity goes out because my fan stops :blink:

 

[seal lovin]

[Goretex]

I am also amung the ranks of the eGO Insomniacs.

 

[frap]

Sometimes if this happens to me, there is usually something on my mind. Such as, I need to do some homework due tomorrow, or I need to check a ban contest, or ext. ext. ext. If this happens I usually do the things on my mind and when i'm doing them i slowly get tired and then fall asleep. It happened last night I kept thinking about by tests i had today so i just got out my spanish book and read it for 10 minutes and then was too tired to read (because spanish is too boring)

 

[FiRESAUCE]

I'm prescribed Ambien for my insomnia along with other things... It sucks, now I cant even sleep if i forget my Ambien at home when im on the road, or at a conference !

Tylenol PM helps too.

Best prescription for sleeping, read a boring book, works like a charm!!!
Experience talking here!!

 

[PeterGriffin]

what is sleep?

 

[Motorcycle Sidecar]

Tylenol PM helps too.

My fiance uses it all the time, but it has ZERO effect on me.

 

[pillar]

most of the time, trance music works 4 me. just keep it low, & i go out like a lite.

 

[Blasphemy]

my Dad listens to classical music.. trust me it doesn't help.

lol, thats so harsh XD

Try turning off all the lights and block off any light so your room is dark. My friend told me that if you have a complete dark room, you'll fall asleep faster.

actually it does cause your mind has nothing to focus on so your mind shuts down and goes into REM but i torrent things all night so i can't

bright blue lights from computer remind me of eGO colors so that doesnt help me sleep much lol.
