any helpful pointers?on the sleep not the nightmares.

 

[jonah]

I just started forcing myself into a regular sleep pattern. Getting up at 7 every day, going to bed at 11 and staying in bed even if I couldn't sleep, getting up even if I had just fallen asleep. Eventually I got so exhausted I managed to sort of regulate. The actually being able to sleep consistently just came naturally enough after (many months) of that. I also cut out caffeine and quite a bit of sugar and spending so much time on the computer. Had to do it all anyway for epilepsy, but it was a good thing to do anyway.

had a dream last night that me and my first cousin fell in love with each other, and my uncle was not too pleased.

I sleep from 4-6am, then 9-11am. sucks.

It must be doing the rounds.
At least I've been productive at pruning and starting off the year with a clean slate.
Cleaning up itunes is soul sucking.

Typically all the normal people get insomnia at the same time in January but I have to get it when there's no one else around.

In retrospect that was clearly an anxiety-driven panic attack.




One can only assume i'm more anxious about the royal wedding than I realised.

Discobot sounds like s/he'd be gas crack.

Funnily enough I had a crazy yearning to listen to Funkytown at around 5:15, possibly can be explained by Discobot.

Or the fucking mania I was experiencing.

Your feet say nothing but move your hips
Move your hips, move your hips
Rat rat rat rat rat rat

A fucking gangbuster's night's sleep last night.

Bed at 9

Feel tip-top

poor me, that was a horrific time.

that sucks, happens to me too. Sometimes I think its best to just stay up when it comes to that, but it rarely works out that way

Oh that was 2011, I'm all good now. Cheers though Jonah

We have a Nor'easter storm moving through. Which basically means that my cunning plan to sneak home for a nap at lunch has been quite literally scuppered.
Kinda literally.
