I want to change my sleeping patterns

[Haiti's Space Agency]

^yeah that should work it always has for me when my schedule got out of whack

[THIS IS IMPORTANT GODDAMNIT]

^^^ how you handle your mood/mental state on several days of no sleep is what defines you as a man. Some quell, some rage

[DiStOrTiOn]

start going to school and you will be forced to sleep better instead of staying up all night playing video games and smoking weed.

It's called an alarm clock. Diphenhydramine helps too.

I have an alarm clock. Having an alarm clock doesn't take away that " I only had 4 hours sleep" feeling

[THIS IS IMPORTANT GODDAMNIT]

As soon as you wake up, smoke a few bongs, that'll get rid of the feelings of tiredness and no sleep

i too ended up not sleeping last night, i took a nice swig of gin and smoked 2 bowls of weed to knock me out.....laid there until 5 am when my housemate start making his breakfast, so i said fuck it and got up. now i'm not even that tired, gonna go get a pizza, smoke some weed, drink some gin and watch mean streets, that shit just finished downloading, took a peek, looks good.

nighty night keep your asshole tight, bitches

I was thinking about this the other day, or something similar. If we ever colonised another planet, the whole society would be entirely different because of little things like this- if our bodies can even biologically adapt to an acceptable degree anyway.

Do you people not have jobs or go to school?

University summer man. 15 weeks.

So you're all barbarians? What kind of schedule do your schools use?

P.S. Melatonin seems to help me fall asleep quicker and sleep better whether placebo or not.

i been laying in bed for over 4 hours and cant sleep i reach the point where i get pist off so i get up and do something like come online.

weed helps me sleep its about the only thing that does but its just a big waiting game until i can get some next "maybe a month"

i dont know what to do until then. tomorrow i got 20 miles to walk and doing that when you not got much sleep makes you feel like shit

I'm merging all these sleep threads, because there's no reason to have a million of them on the first page.

If you're having trouble sleeping, try meditation/relaxation techniques. This is what works for me anyway:

Focus on breathing deeply.
After a few breaths count backwards from 100 with each out breath.
On the first count (100) relax yourself as deeply as you can.
On the second count (99) relax yourself even further.
Etc.
By 95 or 94 there shouldn't be any more numbers.

Occasionally this doesn't work, but it's usually because I'm thinking about something still, or I'm not relaxed enough. I find it focuses my mind enough for me to let go.
