i went home for spring break two weeks ago and came back an insomniac. in the past two weeks i have not gotten more than three hours of sleep a night. prior to two weeks ago i never slept less than eight hours a night. i didn't sleep at all last night. i just lay in bed from aroud two until i got up at eight. it's now 2:30 here and my alarm will be going off at 7:15 in the morning, yet i don't feel sleepy at all and i can't bring myself to go to bed. nothing's changed in my lifestyle that would provide a logical explanation for this. i'm going to have to get some sleeping pills soon. for now i think i'll go watch the barcelona video i just downloaded. who knows, maybe i'll find the back of my head somewhere in the crowd.

hey quin, sorry to hear you can't sleep... it will pass eventually, i promise. Hang in there! Try taking a warm bath and drinking some chamomile tea before bed. Either that or Valium. /images/wink.gif

[THIS IS A JOKE] Just keep putting on Pearl Jam videos until your eyeballs burn out...course then you'll just be awake & blind...

(Aw, it's s'posed to be just fun...)

I have been an chronic insomniac all my life. I rarely get more than 5 hours a night.

i just watched the video of ed with ben harper singing indifference from australia. so now i've had my nice little lullabye, and i'm going to make a likely futile effort to sleep. good night.

quin, concentrate now......ger is rubbing your tired aching shoulders......thumbs pressing in.....squeezing.....circling....your neck....the back of yours skull...above your ears....

i gently squeeze your shoulders, right out to the arms...& back....press on your shoulder blades, circle slowly....

is this working? hmmmm. cyber-massage....could be a doer!

That's exactly what happened to me. I went away for a week (spring break) and when I got back I was an insomniac for a couple weeks. It does pass, your body will eventually burn out, and then you'll crash for a good 24 hours /images/tongue.gif

People are people... so why should it be? That you and I should get along so awfully? DM
