Uh, a cure for what?

T-nex · #3 03-02-2005, 04:07 PM

read a book. A really long one. If you have one about flowers or anything else boring, then it's just better.

Coolmanbizkit · #4 03-02-2005, 04:08 PM

Insomnia, where you cant sleep

T-nex · #5 03-02-2005, 04:09 PM

uh um.... so, are you going to take my advise... or..?

Abe16 · #6 03-02-2005, 04:11 PM

oh, Insomnia, well, my advice is just go to your bedroom, get in bed, close your eyes, and wait for 10 minutes. you'll probably fall asleep then.

Coolmanbizkit · #7 03-02-2005, 04:11 PM

i'll probably try, oh wait i cant my brother sleeps in the same room as me. The light will wake him up

Abe16 · #8 03-02-2005, 04:13 PM

Well, you can buy a lavalamp, if the light doesn't wake him up, LOL, or bring a flash light.

Dark Oddworld · #9 03-02-2005, 04:15 PM

Isn't this topic spam or something.....

Coolmanbizkit · #10 03-02-2005, 04:15 PM

Abe16 · #11 03-02-2005, 04:18 PM

hey, i have a glitter lava lamp, it takes like, 20 seconds to heat up, it may look damp when you see it first, just, you know feel your way around or if you have good eyesight get in bed. Or just get a flash light.

Coolmanbizkit · #12 03-02-2005, 04:19 PM

Abe16 · #13 03-02-2005, 04:21 PM

Yeah. hope it works. Peace out. :P

Coolmanbizkit · #14 03-02-2005, 04:21 PM

thanks for your help guys.

EDIT: They didnt work

Facsimile · #15 03-03-2005, 01:10 AM

Abe16 do you even know what Insomnia is?
Just going to bed doesn't fix it. Otherwise it wouldn't be a freakin' problem, would it?

Joshy · #16 03-03-2005, 01:13 AM

Do homework, especially maths or something hard. Then you'll fall asleep cause you dont want to be awake to think about homework.

Oddish · #17 03-03-2005, 02:11 PM

Well I don't have Insomnia, but I have Anamnia, which is makes me tired alot. When I have truoble sleeping, I just chat to myself until I do.

Alpha · #18 03-03-2005, 03:18 PM

Anamnia!, I have that too execept I just read a book that makes me fall asleep.
Anyway I say just throw water over your face don't ask how it will work but whatever you do, don't dry the water then get in to bed.

odd chick · #19 03-03-2005, 04:30 PM

Well, I'm pretty sure I have Insomnia-no matter how hard I try, I can never fall asleep. I'm always up until somewhere in between 5 and 8 AM. So, yeah, it's pretty bad for me.

TheRaisin · #20 03-03-2005, 05:29 PM

I have trouble sleeping. I'm not sure it would be defined as insomnia. I don't actually know the medical definition of insomnia. If it's simply not being able to sleep, then yeah, I'm an insomniac.

My mom tells me that I can beat it by associating being awake at night with something really boring. Like, if I can't sleep, instead of reading or watching TV as I normally do, I should do something like cleaning my room or doing homework so that my mind will associate being awake with incredible boredom, and I'll fall asleep more easily. I haven't had the willpower to do it yet. Who does homework when they can't fall asleep? Ugh.

I also don't seem to sleep well even if I fall asleep and don't wake up (this is rare, but it does happen). When I wake up in the morning, my eyes hurt like hell and I feel like I haven't slept at all. So I think there's more to it than just not being able to sleep.

I'm the same way a lot. Even if I do sleep at night, I wake up and sometimes even have headaches and my eyes feel and look swollen.

Insomnia? Is that another word for "Sexy?" Because if so, I got it bad.

Biggy Bro Slig · #23 03-04-2005, 12:26 AM

I have some of this Sleep Balm when I can't get to sleep.

Fuzzle Guy · #24 03-04-2005, 05:55 AM

Wear youself out by running round the house several times. (JOKE)
lie in bed and think what your going to do the next day.
Use some sleep balm, it works liek a charm

Coolmanbizkit · #25 03-04-2005, 08:12 AM

Whats sleep balm?

Cyber-Slig · #26 03-04-2005, 08:17 AM

I can't sleep sometimes, but usually it's cos I think too much. If you just quit thinking about allot of shit, you doze off and sleep.

It is this tipe of cream, that you put on your Palms and temples to help you get to sleep.

I think you might have your wires crossed Alpha, unless I'm not understanding the way you've worded your post.

Anemia (sp.) is a condition where you don't have enough iron in your blood which makes you tired/weak. Its got nothing to do with sleeping & having trouble sleeping. Is that what you've got Oddish? I feel sorry for you

Anyway, I usually listen to music or play games when I'm not tired. Everyoner has their own way of drifting off to sleep I suppose.

I'd have trouble sleeping if I was dead too.

TheRaisin · #30 03-04-2005, 03:32 PM

Heh. What I mean is I can sleep for a solid eight hours, being completely unconscious the whole time, and still feel like I haven't closed my eyes for more than a few seconds. Sorry, I wasn't as coherent as usual the other day.

Sleep Balm. Is that the brand name? Is it available in the U.S.? Does it actually work? How much does it cost? Is it available without prescription? I might be interested in this stuff.

I, too, find that I find myself thinking too much when I try to sleep. It's really hard to sleep when your mind is working overtime.
