July 22, 201015 yr . Mine are so screwed right now, for the past month+ I've had a fairly regular schedule of going to bed at 2 or 3 and getting up at 1 or 1:30... fine, except now I'm trying to get back to sleeping normal. Day before yesterday (or three days ago... that's another thing, I don't know if today counts as, like, today, or a continuation of yesterday at this point anymore) I was exhausted and went to bed at like 11 o'clock, then woke up at 4 following a bad dream, tried to go to sleep for about 45 minutes, then said "fuck it" and stayed up the rest of the day. Despite being utterly tired I couldn't fall asleep until 3:00 the next day, and so I slept until 1:30 today/yesterday. Cue my dad getting pissed at me for an unrelated reason and ranting to me about how my sleeping habits are fucked. (Which they are) Cue me agreeing with him, then him getting inexplicably more rageful at me. Cue me lying in bed trying to fall asleep for like 30 minutes after that. No dice. Cue my dad telling me later I need to bring the netbook downstairs for safekeeping overnight at 9:00 pm (perfectly reasonable really I guess). Cue me trying to go to sleep at 8:45 last night. (And succeeding! Woot!) Cue me waking up at 2:00 and not being able to fall asleep despite trying for about 30 minutes, then trying again at around 4. (EVEN THOUGH I AM TIRED. I AM TIRED BUT CANNOT FALL ASLEEP. WTF SON.) I went downstairs to clean up (my insomnia cure-all) around 5, when my dad often gets up, and he yelled at me for walking around in the morning. (This despite the fact that he is already up and watching the morning news. Illogical dick.) So right now I am just so fucked. FUCK CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS.
July 22, 201015 yr Author Exactly. I should probably start getting up to an alarm every day. lakrueowifu s;dnflkj arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.
July 22, 201015 yr Author I can already tell I'll be so tired in less than an hour I'll collapse into bed and sleep until 1 again like I always do, therefore sleeping for another 6 or so hours, making my total sleep like 11 hours or something (:blush:), and I'll be back on my regular schedule. Fuck it. Fuckitty fuck fuck it. Staying up late isn't worth it, kids.
July 22, 201015 yr Let's say you wake up at 2 pm. Stay awake til 9 pm the next day and problem solved.
July 22, 201015 yr Author Let's say you wake up at 2 pm. Stay awake til 9 pm the next day and problem solved. I've DONE that. It works for like ONE day of normal sleep, then BACK TO 2am-1pm SLEEP. IT'S SO FUCKING FUCKED.

This is so me. :blank:
July 22, 201015 yr i seem to be in a 3am-11:30am sleeping pattern which is ok i guess drinking tends to change it about a bit
July 22, 201015 yr Have you tried doing something that bore you to death you'll fall asleep? I used to be as fucked up as all of you, but one day my friend gave me a book by Nicholas Sparks; Dear John. It is the most horrible book I've ever read. I tried to read it once but it got me to sleep after one page. So I kept on reading it every night. It took me one year to finish reading it, but I can remember nothing from the book. Hah.
July 22, 201015 yr Okay. This is so me. :blank: its not quite so bad in summer when you can sleep away and not have to account for anything... but during school ...falling asleep at 6 am and having to BE to school 2 HOURS later = FML! I slept my way though econ... no wonder i didnt pass. Either that or id skip P.E. and take a nap in the school greenhouse.
July 22, 201015 yr Just be glad you're refreshed after 11 hours of sleep I'm not after 12 :disappointed:

I tried that with Eclipse... but i ended up "editing it" with a pen and sometimes being too pissed off by it to sleep. I eventually used it to mop up an Arizona Green Tea i spilled (spilt?) ..it was surprisingly absorbent.... who wouldve thought it... a twilight book... useful.
July 22, 201015 yr hotdensestate do you live by a beach? When my sleep schedule gets to fucked I just go to the beach all day and then at night I can sleep like a baby.
July 22, 201015 yr I go to bed after 3am on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday nights ( and wake up around 12 in the mornings ) But I have work at 8am on Tuesday and Friday mornings so I tend to go to bed about 12 on Monday and Thursday nights. That's probably confusing :\
July 22, 201015 yr Off all technology. Have you tried doing something that bore you to death you'll fall asleep?

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHA :laugh3: Nicholas Sparks is so cheesy. :sick:
July 22, 201015 yr It is! But I feel so guilty not reading it as it's a gift. So I tried, and succeeded. The reason doesn't matter, as long as the result is the same, no? :P
July 22, 201015 yr i went through a period of listening to this song before sleep, around a year ago [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkVT2NwiAgY]YouTube- Aphex Twin - [stone in focus][/ame]
July 22, 201015 yr I Seem to only be getting like 4 or less hours of sleep each night. I Feel like a Fucking Zombie :angry:

And I could figure that out after going to bed at 12:30am and getting up at 4:30am today. I just pwned your crazy sleeping habits and your thread. mwah ha ha
July 22, 201015 yr [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-MWuX7_arA]YouTube- Uh oh someone has some daddy issues (Austin Powers - Goldmember)[/ame]

I just pwned your crazy sleeping habits and your thread. mwah ha ha Not really, I've had similar issues all summer basically. Issues =/= daddy issues, not as far as sleeping goes anywah.
July 22, 201015 yr I just roll over and over until I fall asleep, which could be hours .... :dozey: Sometimes listen to music, but that just makes me wanna sing :D
July 22, 201015 yr I haven't looked at your swimming thread yet, but maybe that would help get your sleep back in line... GO SWIMMING. Find a lake or a crick or a pond or a bird bath or a melted pile of snow and go swimming.
