Insomnia

[Peppovitch]

Day number 3. Can't sleep.  Feel like the guy from Fight Club.

Me too, but not like I cant sleep whole night, just a few hours. I cant sleep since september last year. Neighbor from down under me set up her tv just under my floor (her ceiling), and she keep watching it untill 01:00 am (I hear everything), beside my cat which is becoming more active at night, and is just everyone, the worst is when he wants to leave the room and keep jumping on the door handle.

He mostly poop at 22:00, and 04:00 these are one of the worst times to do it. It stinks so much, that I have to get up, and throw it out. Im one of these people that once they wake up, they cant sleep anymore.. which often leave me ready after 04:00 now.

I miss the no tv & cat life, but after all I like my cat, and wont get rid of it.

Tried some cheap disposable ear plugs? Get some type that aren't uncomfortable and even if they aren't that good they will block out background sound, might help

stop using meth then...

[Peppovitch]

All meth addicts should be killed with fire!

You would probably do them a favour.

You have a lot of work?
If you are not, meditation and to sleep.

Also, my gf seems to be able to fall asleep after she ate something...when she really needs to sleep in order to wake up soon, she just eats something and goes to bed. For me it doesnt work, as if i eat and go to bed immediatelly afterwards, i throw up in the morning.

But, a nice joint or a glass of warm milk does the trick for me. Also, do not drink tea, coffe, cocacola, pepsi or any energetic shits like 4-5 hours prior to planned sleep

I think it may be time.  Let the hibernation begin!

I've suffered from insomnia my whole life, usually I only sleep a few hours per night and rather often I only sleep once per every two days, especially when I was younger. It's pretty impractical, so many birthday parties, examinations and whatnot which I've had to struggle with after no sleep. Luckily, I'm really good at staying awake 

Tiring yourself both physically and (especially) mentally is really the best remedy (for me at least), sleeping pills makes you a medicine-junkie and dizzy the day after, and all the tea, relaxation exercises and other alternative cures are just a waste of time.
Of course, being in front of a PC monitor shoots light rays right into your brain keeping you awake, and if you're a gamer you'll have adrenaline and similar chemicals on top of that, so cutting down on one's internet/gaming addiction is definitely not a bad idea. And yes, of course proper diet helps (helps everything really).

But you'll have a lot of time on your hands, when the days are so long, and long, creative nights

If you dont sleep do you feel shit then? I would really like to need less sleep so I could have more time.

[Christo]

Hah I remember once I didn't sleep for 5 days or so, that was really tiring at the end, I just fell into my bed and slept for the rest of that day.. haha.

I wish I had Insomnia. I could get more work done.

But you can try several things to fall asleep easier:

Drink some alcohol. Apparently, it's not overly healthy, because it fucks up your REM phase etc etc. But you sleep
Look on youtube for "hypnosis" videos. It's doubtful that you will really be hypnotised, but the combination of slow paced voice and stereotype music apparently kicks many people nearly instantly into sheep-counting land
And last but not least, good ole auto-erotism has helped people worldwide fall asleep since.. forever.
