Insomnia
 

How many on here have had it or currently have it? Advice on how to get over it? For the past week or two I've been sleeping for maybe 2-4 hours and then randomly wake up and can't go back to sleep until later in the day when I take a nap.

Night cap.

Exercise..don't eat too late....take vitamins

When you take a nap? Who the **** has time for a nap?

I got 3 hours sleep & good to go. May crash later on, but figure will get plenty of sleep on or day after 12-21-2012.

Don't understand insomnia. I am always dog ass tired by 10.

How long of a nap are you taking?

I live on 3-4 hours sleep almost every night. Life is too short to just sleep away.

I'll get all the sleep I need when I'm dead.

It's called Interval insomnia.I sleep a little while,wake for no reason,repeat.Typically I sleep 3-4 hrs max..Been going through it for 12-15 years now and taking something is the only treatment that I know of,excersize didn't help me.Because of my work I cannot take certain drugs/medicines so most sleeping aids are not an option for me.I've just learned how to operate as best I can on 3 hrs sleep..I take one day a week and "recharge" so to speak by taking a benadryl,which knocks me the **** out,and sleep 8-10 hrs.Don't know what to say except good luck.It doesn't help much but it's all I got.

Stop stressing about the Chiefs QB situation and get some sleep.

It's almost always stress related. Deal with whatever it is that's stressing you out first.

And don't try so hard. When you try to force yourself go to sleep, it never works. You can't force it. If you can't sleep, get out of bed and do something. Don't worry about feeling like you have to get X hours of sleep every night. Let your body actually get tired.

My doctor told me to exercise, don't eat to late, and to get up at the same time everyday. Then only go to bed when your tired. If you lay down and can't call asleep within about 15minutes or so, get up and stay up for a while until your tired. Eventually you'll get your clock on the right schedule.

Oh, and no naps
