likewise, this would be day 2 of my tolerance break and i already have a bad case of sinuses developing which also contributed to not being able to sleep due to fucked up breathing patterns. laugh out loud

dunno man, for sleep's sake....  get some sun/exercise during the day, hot tea before bed, jack off, or read. those usually help.  if not then chug a 12 pack of beer and pass out  :tongue:

I have the daytime variety :frown:

Poor wife of mine falls asleep on anything so everything in our medicine cabinet is daytime or less drowsy formula, I however have huge tolerances for everything pharmaceutical. Besides It is 8:30 am now no point in sleeping the day away.

I have the same problem dude.


Im prescribed lorazepam for it but also take xanax and klonopoin a pretty good amount. If I need to fall asleep it helps me but its still not easy. Usually if I dont have anything to do the next day Ill stay up all night regardless of whether or not I take benzos.

you cant sleep cause you arent tired im guessing, do you do any physical activity? even 30 minutes of physical exertion puts me to sleep much better at night.

maybe it doesn't cause insomnia, i have no idea - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedentary_lifestyle

this is me on a bar, 3 methrolls (up 4 days), ketamine, and some good acid two years ago.

lol yeah I was a bit under active yesterday but I always get out for a walk in the evening and usually do several sets of push ups, sit ups pull ups and such throughout the day. I value my health cause my parents are huge and it effects every aspect of their lives. I thought about a run around the neighbourhood at about 2am but damned if it wasn't 20 outside. took my motivation right away.

It used to take me atleast 1 hour if not 3 or 4 hours every night before I'd actually fall asleep, I seem to be better now though since being on Citalopram.

But don't take that. lol

Read a book man, read it until your eyes sting and you're struggling to stay awake.

If you're lookin for a healthy way just do some cardio 2 hours before you go to sleep. (If you can)

(Off topic)  I do intense cardio twice a week and I keep my bpm between 180-190 for at least 30 mins...and on those nights I sleep like a fucking baby...... gurranteed.

Dunno if ur into that kinda stuff but it will work and you'll get in great shape....even if you're not overly increasing your heartrate.

Otherwise I would suggest melatonin....it's much easier on you than tylenol pm or something else with benedryl in it.

u find a synergestic effect with melatonin and alcohol matt?  i use melatonin sometimes but its mild, you think mixing with alcohol is helpful for that?

Cool, yeah I am a normally active guy but not really a health nut, I just would rather drink chamomile tea then put a chemical in my body(unless it gets me high). I had not thought about melatonin as a solution but it's not a bad one. I don't normally have trouble sleeping but the last week it seems to have gotten worse. It's nice today so I will go for a run. I also got to build some shit today so I vented some creativity.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys.

Melatonin seems to work albeit it's definitely very mild. Alcohol being a depressant helps one to relax/unwind. Yeah, I would certainly say that there is a synergistic effect when combining the two.

I sleep like a fucking baby that's for sure. :lol:

Ambien knocks me out in 5 minutes. If i stay awake for 15+ min I start to feel pretty fucking good though. :laugh: trazadone usually will have me out in half hour, and dexedrine is what causes me to not be able to sleep.

Things to remember while tripping
1) Cars can hurt you.
2) You cannot fly.
3) It's never a good time to die.
4) Taking your clothes off will draw attention.
5) Keep your mouth shut at all times while in public.
6) Although you may see things that are not there, you won't NOT see things that are there.
7) Don't forget how to breathe.
8) Only carry: a house-key, some loose change, and your address in your shoe.
9) Nobody can tell that you are tripping until you tell them "I'm tripping".
10) No matter how fucked-up you think you are, you'll eventually come down.

thats 12 bucks for 30 doses (60 pills) where ambien with health insurance for a month only runs me 10 bucks  :laugh: For some reason it costs twice as much as other medications though. but yeah to be fair natural ways are usually safer and better for you. Like good ol'herb

I had the same problem with marijuana when I tried to stop. But, that was only when I was really upset about discontinuing its' use. When I decided to quit for other reasons, mostly to help myself, I slept well. It may very well be psychosomatic. :shrug:

But anyway, Tylenol PM has worked well for me in the past. You could also try some warm milk or another warm beverage before bed. Valerian root is also good.

Ya man I'd look into melatonin.

Its a natural sleep aid, no chemicals at all.

Melatonin is naturally produced in our bodies when our biological clocks are telling us its time to get ready for sleep. In humans its released in much larger quantities in darkness.

So its basically an extra boost of what your body is already producing. I have used it many times in the past and if your not going for any sricpts its def the next best choice.

Give it a try let us know how it works for ya.

Peace

There are other "herbs" & supplements out there that will help you drift off to sleep...


The one i recommend the most would be Valerian root. It's worked great for me in the past. It actually works in a very similar way to a Benzodiazepine so :thumbup:.


Kava is another one i would suggest trying...



I have taken a combination of a few select herbs/supplements for sleepy time before...Some Valerian root, Kava, Chamomile tea, and a bit of melatonin and you should drift off to sleep rather effortlessly...




I see several people have recommended melatonin...The thing with melatonin, less is more. Most melatonin supplements come in 3mg-5mg, which is more than you need. Take to much and it's counter effective, you may find it even more difficult to sleep. So depending on the mg i suggest splitting the pills into 1/4s, 1/3s, or at least 1/2s....And only take it occasionally when you really need it. Give your self at least 8 hours of sleep time, it's not to uncommon to be a bit slow in the morn if you took melatonin the night before....



Hope this helps some...

:2cents:

I suffer from horrific insomnia. I use to stay up for days on end when I was a child.

Here are some simple methods I use:
1. Daily exercise is key and eating well too.
2. Camomile tea right before bed and a good book is always a nice combo.
3. Sometimes if I just don't feel like reading, I put on a movie but I don't watch it, I just close my eyes - listening to music makes me think about things, but when I put on a movie my mind is like a blank sheet of paper. What I do specifically is I put my mac next to my bed, and turn off the screen. :shrug:

Also heres one more, now I don't know if your much of a believer in the power of the mind or shit like that but I've been reading Erhard F. Freitag's self help book titled: The Subconscious Mind. Good read - however, it's mainly about dealing with depression - however, last week I took a tolerance break, and had a lot of trouble sleeping; so, I decided to try and apply Freitags methods to sleeping.

The idea is, you actively communicate with your subconscious and tell it what you want and don't want. So if your experimental try this out, and make a ritual out of it:

1. Close your eyes, and say this aloud: "I wish for my thoughts to be clouds, disappearing into the wind. From now on, my mind will be blank and I will go to sleep. No new thoughts or memories will come into my head. I take all my worries and all my problems into my hand..." (touch your forehead with your hand) ..."I take them out of my mind and into my hand..." (take hand away and close fist) "I take them into my hand and I put them under my pillow..." (put hand under pillow and open palm) "and I leave my problems and my worries under my pillow, until tomorrow morning.

I know this sounds uber corny but it helped me. :shrug:
