My monthly insomnia is back. Cant fuckin sleep at all. I toss and turn and ive taken enough painkillers and sedatives that I should be out like a light (my doc told me to, im not self medicating).
I fuckin hate insomnia. Its not bad during the day, but i night i feel like i should be sleeping and it pisses me off. Cause I get tired at night, but not enough to sleep. During the day while i have insomnia im more alert and my eyes arent as blurry.
Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to keep myself occupied?
Ive got a few HD Star trek movies im gunna watch, gunna play some computer games after i watch a movie or 2 then, if i cant sleep still, im gunna play some more gta.
Any other idea's? |
Feel for you man also. This is psychologic based. You wont get rid of it trought night or week. This is gathering in our bodies for years or decades, cureing it also take years. You have to think positive, occupy yourselfe with sport, healty food....
I know that you already know this, but it really have to change lifestyle for long period of time to feel resaults. My GF also have this, but now it is ok.
About milk : Naturally milk will last few days. These days, milk in strores have long last duration. I heard that this milk is squirt trough tiny pouts to break molecule to smaller parts. Resaults is that milk last longer, but humans stomacks cannot digest it. So this could be the reason for trouble you have or you are just have allergy.
Sorry for my english, cant explain it better. |
naw man, i dont have an allergy to milk. Milk sits fine with me  I know it will last for a week or so, but i like it alot thats why i drink so much. I'd rather have milk than pop or something you know?
Well, I passed out like a baby cause of the pills. slept from about 7:30am to 3pm. Still pretty tired tho. I think Im going to be able to sleep tonite. Stop playing vids around 10 or 11pm and relax for a few hours and should be fine to sleep. |

You should go see a neurologist, he might be able to help you with this.
You can also try psychiatry. |

That's the point, you may have a neurological problem, especially that you're experiencing it at specific times each month.

No no, not desperate, just annoys me to no end. I hate not sleeping you know? I get very angry easily when I dont sleep my needed hours. So i cant really be around ppl when i dont sleep you know? usually, someone will piss me off really good.

Have you had your insomnia actually diagnosed? Or are you using the term insomnia like most, which is innapropriately applied to any sleep dysfunction?
If you have a monthly cycle for not sleeping you should be able to get some form of diagnoses. Depending on the severity (does it affect your job etc.) you may be able to get perscribed sleeping pills. I am usually the last to recommend pills, if it's a day or two per month the risk of dependance is quite low.
If you are on any medications, or self medicating for that matter, there may be a point in each month where the doses are low? Perhaps high? Stresses my mount up at certain times during a month.
Just tossing out some ideas.

Yeah, accute insomnia is what my doc says. I used to have it all the time (due to anxiety). Anyway, I take 3 different pills when i go to sleep and they all have a sedative effect and allows me to sleep soundly for 4-6 hours. My doc wont give me actual sleeping pills.
But Im out of 2 of the medications and i cant get them till monday. she wasnt in on thursday or friday for me to get a refill.
So I have to wait till mondy to get a script from here.
Sometimes its because i dont have meds and sometimes i think your right, its just stress. either which way, its a bitch and a half. Like, its 6:30am here and I ive slept for an hour. from 4am to 5am i passed out watching stargate (recorded last nite).
Im still tired as fuck tho.
But i usually take my morning painkiller's at 6am anyway, so hopefully, by 7:30am, i will be asleep and atleast sleep till lunch
Thats fuckin bothering me man. My knee's. One knee is fucked because of martial arts and the other because i dropped a piece of steel on it months ago. And since its spring and rainy but still cold, my knee's ache like crazy. Unbearable sometimes. Like i'll have to take 6 or 7 T1's on top of my painkillers cause my knee's ache so bad.
And Ive had them xrayed. Something to do with the joints. I'll prolly need surgery by the time im 40.
