The Insomniac Thread

[Dayze]

I'm reluctant to post this thread.
1: I don't like to create threads unnecessarily. Similarly, I don't like to jerk off too much.
2: I don't want to duplicate topics of frequency.

This leads me to me to a potential conflict with the world renown (ok......not really, only us sad assholes on this board) "10PM" Thread(s).

From a personal perspective, I'm an insomniac. At this point in time, I'm pushing nearly 48 hrs w/out the Zzzs.

While the 10pm thread is great....we (the freak shows) need the freedom to talk about shitty shows being aired on USA or tRuTV.com at a moments notice. I need a place to roll into and toss random shit out there.

Oh, and Poop. Definitely Poop. ........and the Tranny's. ........and the "......asking for a "Friend"....' stuff.


MODs....delete this turd if it's a duplicate. I thought an "Insomniac" titled thread might be cool, or possibly combine some threads. If not....it's cool. I have a stash of playboys from 1992 that I "think" I can rub one out to. Strange....when I could've blown a load into a stiff breeze, there were no problems. But now, looking at the now dated Pron, .......there's a LOT of previously unseen/noticed bush.

Well, the claim is it activates the digestive system which can keep you up. It never bothered me either. He's the one having trouble.

Here is a bunch of suggestions Dayze:

Regular sleep hours, wake up at same time each day, regular exercise, don't use bed other than for sleep or sex. Write down a list of what you have to do the next day so you don't think about. Some pretty good suggestions in there.

Or I let Tom Waits sing me to sleep:

Did drive me crazy though.
I took some steps to help.
Never go to bed with the TV
Don't drink Alcohol or caffeinated beverages
Make sure you are all sexed out.
Don't fight it. If you cant sleep just get up and read till sleepy

I'll be 37 on Saturday.

the last statement is what my doc has told me in the past. I haven't been very good about doing it. He also said to get up at the same time EVERY day, and only go to bed when you're sleepy. eventually of the course of a month or thereabouts, it will balance out. but he emphasized getting up at the same time every day.
