No sleep

Who else just can't sleep? It seems to me that no matter how long I've been working and have o stay awake, most nights/mornings I still can't fall asleep. Any one else have this problem?

    I feel for you bro. That must be rough. My problem is a little different.. I don't have any trouble falling asleep, but sometimes I have problems getting back to sleep if I wake up during the middle of the night.

    Fortunately, I don't have that problem. You can change your circadian rhythm by changing your eating habits for 1 day. By doing that it should help you fall asleep earlier, because the time you eat helps determine when you're going to fall asleep.

    I used to sleep great, but ever since 2009 when I hurt my back and had to have the titanium cage, teflon discs, and cadaver bone installed (and the surgeon accidentally cut my sciatic nerve that goes down my legs during the operation) I don't get more then 15-20 minutes at a time (cant stay in one position more than that whether laying down, sitting, standing) I will get comfortable, fall asleep, then wake up within 15-20 mins from nerve pain until I move a bit, rinse & repeat. That combined with having to take norco once in a while that will keep me up on its own. I will average 4 hours total a day overall broken sleep

    In college I was an insomniac, I would go several days in a row without sleep and then crash from exhaustion. The first couple days were crazy productive since I had 24 full hours to work with, but the last day or so were....interesting. For me it was mostly stress induced, I'd close my eyes and my brain would just spin up and not settle down. To get me through the worst parts I had a prescription for Xanax that worked wonders (only drug I've ever thought I could see getting hooked on). Looking back, it was also an early symptom of depression. But as the rest of the guys have said it could be a number of things, if you haven't already you should talk to your doctor. my boss has a CPAP breathing machine, don't ask what it stands for I don't know, and that is the only way she can sleep (and no, not first hand knowledge, she told me, you pervs ;->). It's the thing Junior Soprano had to have after he fell down the stairs at the courthouse.

    Over the years I've tried diffrent things, for me nothing seems to work. Once I fall asleep I sleep well unless disturbed. It's just falling asleep that is the hard part. I feel for those of you that can't fall back asleep.
