Mrbig Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 i love to sleep,but its hard when your married with children. It's not always a picnic when you're non-married with children Or when your landlord's daughter brings her boyfriend home at about 3am and has a loud :kiss: session in her bedroom which is directly above yours.lol teenagers anytime anyplace haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was with my ex, we could hear her whale of a cousin (and my ex work mate :shock: ) going at it in the early hours... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 11-10 hours sleep from monday to friday, if I go past 8pm on weekdays I just get dazed. Saturday and Friday I usually have around 12 hours sleep because I have a night out partying late having drinks then sleep in for a long time.

Peachy Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Oh god not enought thats for sure.

I had to go home early from work the other day because my body was just shutting down I was close to tears.

I had to go home early from work the other day because my body was just shutting down I was close to tears. Really don't know whats wrong Seem to be catching up on the weekends by sleeping the whole day.I can relate to this. Is the zopiclone working? It didn't work for me, but then again, my problem isn't getting to sleep, it's staying asleep. I'm now about to do night three on amitriptyline, and so far, so good. I don't know what's wrong either, but starting to think it may be anxiety from freaking out about not being able to sleep? Hope the pills work out for you.

Peachy Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Yeh they seem to be working for me coz once Im asleep i could sleep for days Im that tired. But its getting to sleep thats my problem. My doctor has only prescribed me 2 weeks worth though as a temporary thing and he thinks its anxiety an stress too. But I can't fix that in 2 weeks!! I've cut out all caffiene, cleaned up my diet, taking my vitamins, cut out all the food a naturopath told me my body doesn't do well with, everything I can think of to sort this out!! Really sux.but starting to think it may be anxiety from freaking out about not being able to sleep? definately a contributing factor for me :nod: Hope the pills work out for youThanks hope you get yours sussed too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookie Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Usually get 8hrs+ a night and a 1-2hr power nap.. Usually feel like crap if I don't get 8hrs+I've done a quad session on 3hrs sleep, and did a bench comp in the arvo- was fuelled by a lot of caffeine to say the least :pfft: Rookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterDolan Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Caffeine doesn't even touch the sides now, just gives me the shits... :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Haha everyone's different ay! My caffeine sensitivity is abnormal so I get wired off tiny amounts of it- had 2 cans of monster energy drink and I was bouncing off the walls :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phedder Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Different every night for me. Sometimes as little as 3-4 hours, or as much as 9-10 hours. Physically can't properly sleep for longer than 10 or so. The strange thing is sometimes after 3-4 hours I'm wide awake and function great all day, and sometimes after 9-10 I wake up still tired and am sluggish all day etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterDolan Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 I was like that as a student too Phed, not often though haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 When I do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the evening I have to force myself to have a 30 minute sleep when I get back from work so I have the energy to go later. Strangely when I come back I can't sleep for hours as I'm still wired from the class and need at least 4 hours to calm down and relax. I can feel the adrenaline surging throughout my system for hours afterwards. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monarchking Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 just had a mean 1.25hour nap.(finished work early) fucken needed it, doms are slightly better too, and my eyes are hell of a lot more fresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
