 Posted: Tue, 12th Aug 2008 14:01 Post subject: lack of sleep |
|
 |
so i have had 3 hours of sleep in the last 48 hours... most of it was working... the rest i couldn't sleep because we have guests over from US and i only get to see them for a week...
to last through the last 8 hours of work, i drank a "5 hour energy" drink (those tiny bottles that taste like utter shit) a huge bottle of jolt and a caff pill... i made it through the shift, but now that i want and should be sleeping, i am shaking and feel so wired... it is FUCKED...
there is NOTHING i love more than a good sleep, i sleep usually 11 or so hours a day... lack of sleep fucking with my mood, with my job performance and most importantly with gym...
how much sleep do you guys get? you get it regularly and without problem?

I sleep during the day, if I'm lucky.. Sometimes I'll go a day or two not sleeping, then crash for over 15 hours, other times I'll sleep 6 hours 5 nights a week and be just fine...
I actually was recently diagnosed with this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_sleep_phase_syndrome
but they said they need to do more tests and sort more out...
PS, Tell me you were doing traffic duty or desk work and weren't patrolling while fucked like that

funny, on friday slept only for about 7 hours...then when came back from work on saturday i went straight to splish and splash and only drank one redbull, i came home around 10PM
then just had to sleep and woke up following sunday at 4pm to go to work >< that is what 18 hours of sleeep
but i need at least 9 or 10 hours of sleep everday
when school was still on and i slept anywhere from 6-8 hours i would find myself sleeping in my classes but those 30 minute naps did good to me was fine for the rest of the day
right now a nap during the day is a must for me

i never heard of it, but it sounds like what i've been experiencing for some years now. between 4 and 5am i will fall asleep, sleep til 11/12 and wake up just on my own.
i can't maintain a "normal" rhythm for more than a few days.
i tried running and sport in general, smoking etc before sleeping. i just won't fall asleep when until it's at least 4am.

Drink a little bit of wiskey and youll get knocked out. Especially if you train alot your body will start burning the alcohol imideatelly making you very drowsy and tired.
Sleep about 7-8 hours each day, i need my sleep or I feel like a zombie the next day.

Have a really hot shower and drink before you go to bed, the body wastes a lot of energy trying to keep cool.

man im in the same boat, im struggling to sleep lately, so much shit on my mind, just last night I was awake again for 48 hour mark and was throwing up probably down to stress, its bad shit, so I went to my buddies house and ended up crashing on his bed all afternoon. My sleeping pattern is so erratic sometimes.. STay off those energy drinks etc, theyre really bad for you and your metabolism/sleeping pattern.

I sleep roughly 3-6 hrs a night and on the weekends about 3 hrs the entire weekend. Eventually after a few months of this i will crash out for an entire weekend.

Watched sometimes ago a documentary on Discovery about insomnia , they said there that the lack of sleep makes the brain produce a enzyme that has the same quality as alcohol . The more you are awake the more you are feeling drunk and can't control what are you doing . People with insomnia are those that are resistant to very high doses of alcohol or have a higher body mass . |
Hrm as weird as that sounds I almost believe it. I can pretty easily down a bottle of booze and a case of beer. I just figured it was tolerance.

That little cocktail you took can really fuck up your heart. Tackycardia, Basically you heart speeds up so fast that it isn't contracting enough to pump the blook throughout your body. Maybe you should just to the caffine pill and take it as directed, that way you at least know how much caffine in you.

That really sucks you have that. I have most of those symptoms too except I can wake up in the morning. Sounds like Syoc too.

lol my buddy is in the army.. there they have this training routine of making them stay awake for 3 days to test their limit... so after 50 hours, he downed a whole bottle of caff pills... anyway he stayed up for the 3 days but after the 3 days the doctors would not allow him to sleep, apparently with that much caff in your body, you would die if you went to sleep.... hahahahaha
anyway guys i don't have insomnia, i sleep 11 hours a night EASYYYYY if i dont have work, room is totally dark and quite.... this lack of sleep is because of too much work and being stressed out.

Personally i get very jazzed up after wanking and find myself more awake than before. Your blood pressure goes up when excited which further awakens you. But maybe its a personal thing...

Boil it with milk and a tablespoon of honey for maximum effect  |

Unfortunately it is not pure. I almost got some root capsules but went for the teabags instead. Unless you mean empty the teabag into the pot and boil it with milk etc?
