Insomnia?

For whatever reason, I couldn't fall asleep until about 3:30/4:00 in the morning last night, despite having to wake up at about 5:30 for school. I was tired, but I just couldn't fall asleep.

Today, same shit. Despite the fact that I am fucking exhausted from working all day. What the fuck is this bullshit?

Are there any OTC sleeping pills? I'd go the obvious weed route since that always makes me sleepy/I'll use any excuse to smoke weed, but I don't get paid until later this week, and I don't want to go through this shit again tomorrow.

Anything with Benadryl (diphenhydramine) in it should knock you out. This includes most of the PM products at your grocery store: Tylenol PM, Excedrin PM, etc. Just try not to become immune to it by spacing out doses.

Those usually work for me, though you may have a bit more in your bloodstream.

I haven't been able to go to sleep until around 5 AM in the morning for a while, either, but even then I don't feel particularly tired. ): I'd recommend you read a book. Seriously. Books are cool and all, but if you've stayed up for more than half a day and you get in bed to read, all o' them werdz might knock you out. And if they don't, hey, you get to read a book and learn something, so it's a win-win situation. >_> Since you've only just become a teenager :shifty, I don't think pills is the ideal solution. <,<
ApollyonProject: The phrase "don't you" is dumb
ApollyonProject: "Do not you" doesn't really make sense
ApollyonProject: Not when you use it at the end of a sentence, I mean
ApollyonProject: Like, I guess if you open the sentence with something like, "Do not you greave at funerals?" it does
ApollyonProject: But "You greave at funerals, do not you?" doesn't work <_<
Equathor: don't u wish ur grlfrnd wuz hawt laik me :]
ApollyonProject: I bring this up 'cause I'm editing a story I wrote and noticed I used don't you in one of the situations men- ...Why do I talk to you?

Equathor: What is that thing with the Squirtle? Is it Oddish? :]
ApollyonProject: It's oddish's first evolution?
ApollyonProject: I wanna say gloom is in the name

This is what I heard, but it's the side effects of Benadryl that make you sleepy, not the medication itself, isn't it? Anyways, I've been wanting to trip off Benadryl, so I'm going to try to get one of my parents to buy me a box or two now. >_>

Well get it figured out quickly. I'm going on 8 months now of chronic insomnia, and I still have no fucking clue what to do. If you can get a hold of Ambien prescription sleeping pills thay can work wonders. Just be sure to take one only, taking two puts you into a 12 hour coma.

I wake up at 5:30 since it takes me like half an hour to actually wake up and get out of bed.

And I have (very) early classes. But I get out at 1:25, so woot.

Organon's suggestions are best here, IMO. Reading is one of the most mind-taxing things you can do, the precise eye movement and concentration tire you out good.

That would explain why I fall asleep reading, even if it is something I'm enjoying.

Yeah, the intent was just as a pain reliever but when there was a kick for PM medication it was brought back for the side effect.

Yep. Whether they know it or not, the people who read before bed are helping themselves go to sleep.

I've had insomnia my whole life though, I'd guess since around age 12 or so. The only time I never struggled with it was when I was working the night shift, and at basic training :shifty both should be self explanatory. So Mysterio, you can either get a job working the night shift, or join the military. That should help! Something else that puts me to sleep is video games. I wonder if that ties in with the whole hand-eye coordination.

I might have to give mine to the restaurant industry, because after having to drive home from Chicago five days a week at Midnight earliest, usually 2-3 am. Driving for some reason makes me more awake and I've never come close to falling asleep behind the wheel.

Speaking of Insomnia hour 37 of being up. And I'm probably not going to sleep tonight either. YEEHAW!

BMAN ITS OK, I'M STILL ALIVE.

Plus I think the smoking, eating fatty foods, and hatred of exercise probably hurts it more.
