Hehe, You know.. I suffer from really really really bad anxienty/agoraphobia-problems which means I usually never get outta the house. I try read instead of just trying to fall asleep with success some nights and other nights.. nothing.

Fortunately I don't have any agoraphobia, but I suffer from stress very easily. That's why I have to relax for 2-3 hours at the end of the night before going to bed - get all possible sources of stresses firmly locked away.

Not getting out of the house is bad though - just the lack of fresh air alone makes it harder to sleep for me.

If you can you should work it into your life cycle. I had no problems at uni cause late retirement/late mornings was feasible. Not so easy with the 9-5.

I've been working really hard with my anxienty/agoraphobia lately (well, i've always been working with it) and it feels like it is both getting better and worse! It's just a matter of time before I can beat this demon I've got.

And yes, problems with stress is really really bad. I can't stand stress either

insomnia sucks

and to anyone who claims to have it i feel like punching them in the face

I ask them to come back and talk to me when they have a total of one hour of sleep scattered through out 10 days.....10 minutes here 2 there 5 there another 3 there....

Anyways...I feel that lots of musicians with their creative mind probably would know how it feels since most of us have similar mind sets...

I'M NOT 100 percent sure but I would believe that's right...too many ideas in our heads

LordJonas: Aye, indeed.. When my insomnia were at it's worst I usually got ~5-10 minutes of sleep every 2-3 days.

That sucked, It has become alot better since but still.. I don't got a normal sleeping pattern. I've tried everything and the most effective (as yet) is loads of sex and listening to my; "Relax and fall asleep"-cd.

If that isn't a option (Well, I am one of the lucky fellas with a nice gf) when Ausa is outta town / whatever.. Simpsons/Family Guy on the xbox.

oi...

insomnia at it's worse sucks hell

most i've ever stood up due to it was 14 days

my body was so achey my head was going crazy and i just wanted sleep

I couldn't move I had to call in sick for work

when i built my synth I would lie in bed for hours thinking about the next circuit, or why the last isn't working, all of a sudden you'd get it then :shock: get up fix circuit and test and relise you have just missed another nights sleep.

Can't say I have ever suffered from insomnia though that must be hard, I always end up falling asleep eventually, it may be after being in bed awake all night then finally falling asleep during the day.

That's a damn good point Mkelly.

For some reason I have a "sleepy time of day" usually around noon.

I try and take my lunch early and then when everyone else is out to lunch I can just sit and doze a bit and catch 20 winks without really sleeping.

It makes a world of difference!

try to finish work at around six, grab food on the way home, switch on the shid and can be there until 4am quite easily dancing around like a fool. Can't concentrate for shit the next day, but when the creative drive is there, you have to go with it - work just isn't as important, and should suffer by law.
