Silenced Fred Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Who else can't sleep? Whether it be something on your mind, or just don't do it I guess. It is kinda annoying but I like the peacefulness of 3am Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmurray Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Same problem here man. Finding it very hard to unwind after a big day at work then with the screaming kids when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silenced Fred Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 sorry guys' date=' but as soon as my head hits the pillow im gone! [biggrin'], try counting sheep... See, I can fall asleep, on most occasions, but for whatever reason, I always wake up really early, like 4 or 5. It sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWP37 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I go through cycles of only sleeping about 1 hour a night for 3 or 4 days and subsequently crashing for like 2 consecutive days straight. It really sucks. I always feel like a zombie or like I'm in a dream or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS44 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Happens to me all the time. Always the day before a vacation ends. I also enjoy the quietness at 3 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruznolfart Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 friggin' pain pills...still! Sleep about 2 hours and then toss and turn. I'll try again tonight for a good night's sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitargreg1993 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 yea.... i have trouble sleeping a lot.... i physically cant fall asleep until usually about 1 or 2 am.... and even then most of the time im not tired enough.... and the only way i can actually fall asleep is by listening to some soft music.... and it always takes about 30-45 min for me to fall asleep.... so a lot of times i barely get any sleep all night.... and i completely agree with you.... i love the peacefulness of 3am.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem00n Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I read that kids that are homeschooled dont have trouble sleeping. Wonder why? Around 50% of kids (no joke this is real) that got to a public or private school have trouble sleeping. I read that in ny times, time magzine and local newspaper. Same like all of you. I love the peacefulness of 3am and i have trouble sleeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 During the warm months theres nothing I like more than going for a bike ride at 3am. The air is sticky sweet and theres not a soul around. I live right at the bottom of a mountain (Niagara Escartment) so the trails are endless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffster Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I don't sit the hell down or go to bed when I should. I am always tired, when I do sleep well I am a different person. My main problem is caffeine but I love coffee and although I only drink it in the morning it stays with me. I fall sleep fast but once my body gets the minimum rest caffeine kicks in. A lot of times insomnia is directly tied to what we eat and drink and when we do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's stuff out here in our woods at that time of night that would eat you. Course' date=' I also read an article about a griz running outta the woods in Alaska to knock a rider off a moving Harley in broad daylight. Apparently they don't like the noise. Happy riding.

ledzep59 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I cannot go to sleep until about 3am at the earliest. One does get in a very relaxed and contemplative mood. Listen to one of Chopin's "nocturnes". I love this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[blink'] lol!...I do think of that when im riding along during the wee hours. We dont have Bears here, the only thing that may do me some damage (besides a human) would be a Coyote. I do take a retractable metal baton with me when I go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thin_Lizzy Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I can't sleep. Haven't been able to for years, sleeping tablets are my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 It is just a bunch of stress with school and stuff. Dem00n I completely believe all of that, I was homeschooled until the fourth grade and there are a lot less worries, but there are now all these assignments and other worries, like staying up late to work on homework or a project. Lately, I have been on a crazy sleep schedule due to break and such. I like playing guitar not plugged in at those instances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Up until last week, I was dealing with around three weeks of insomnia. I would fall asleep then wake up an hour or two later, be up for three or four hours then go back to sleep for another hour or two before having to go to work. It happens to me once in a while but that was the longest stretch that it has ever lasted and it sucked. Finally, I fell out of that pattern and am back to sleeping normally (normal for me, anyway).

Andre S Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 For the Christmas Vacation I went to bed every day at about 4am and got up at 6am... Felt fine for the day..then the same thing over and over. I went to bed at like 10 the day before school...Couldn't sleep till like 12... Now my pattern is getting normal again....its sad. I like my erratic hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I read that in ny times' date=' time magzine [/b']and local newspaper. Now there's a couple of objective sources! It's not news, it's an agenda. I've never worked a normal '9 to 5' in my life. Worked off a pager on 24 hour call for years until I went into the plant world. Worked rotating 12 hour shifts for nealy 15 years now. Currently I'm on a 35 day rotation. 6 days off! Woo-Hoo!!! 4 nights 4 days off (first one spent sleeping) 3 days 1 day off 4 days in a classroom (10 hours a day, try that schoolboys!) 2 days off 3 nights 4 days off (first one spent sleeping) 4 days Starts all over again.... I'm beyond insomnia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
