Random Thoughts 19

Are there actual symptoms of insomnia besides having serious trouble getting to sleep on a regular basis?

 

I haven't been enrolled at a school since last fall, but I'm planning on enrolling for the upcoming spring semester.




Also, Chasing Victory sound just like Underoath did on They're Only Chasing Safety.

 

I didn't go to school because I couldn't be bothered to take the PSAT and since I'm like 1 of 2 people that opted out of it, I would've been the only person in all of my morning classes.

 

I don't know why people have cold fingers and warm bodies.

 

Your internal organs are more important than your fingers so your body adjusts itself so your internal organs are kept warm and it forgets about your fingers and other extremities.

 

Well done, Eye-Sha (or however it is spelled).

Stay awake, Nikki. Finish another few paragraphs.

 

Your avatar is glorious.

 

Ahh. That would make sense

However, durring Mid-summer, around 110F weather, I'm pretty sure any part of the body is pretty warm already.

 

Shouldn't you be sleeping by now? =P

 

Yeah. But you're in California. So that automatically makes you weird.

 

I can't. I've had waaay too much sugar today.

 

You knoez it.

Also, about your insomnia problem - it's not that fact you can't sleep - there's a certain mentality which can often follow it: the fear of not being able to wake up again. Aside from that, the only 'symptoms' are ones associated with tiredness itself, like anxiety or slight depression. Nothing truely noticeable though (if that makes sense)

Dig around in your head for any disturbing thoughts you might have. Jot them down just before you get into bed. A clear mind can lead to a clearer night's sleep.

Also, try doing some gentle excercise like stretching or whatnot. I know this next bit it incredibly wrong for me to say, but...erm...How to put this without shattering the KIC rule.. "Self Enjoyment" - that can also calm you down mentally.

Remind yourself that your bed is an area of sleep - avoid watching tv or playing games in it. Only go to bed when you can feel you can sleep. A bit of gentle music (or tracks you like) in the background can help

Don't bother with nightcaps - they don't work.

I think I covered most things there. My problem right now isn't the fact I can't sleep willingly - it's the fact I have to stay awake. Really isn't doing me any favours :/

 

Hyper?

 

ooh alright. Mr.IliveinOhiothathasmorethan2seasonsandisintheroflmiddleofu.s



RAWR!

 

The other regular poster here that also lives in Ohio told me the other day that 75 percent of the women in California are conceited, and 50 percent of them have fake boobs. I don't fit into either of those categories though, and I am a life long California resident.

I don't understand why everyone else thinks Californians are weird.

 

A little bit. If it wasn't the middle of the night I would at least be able to try and run it off.

I'll probably try again in a moment, I definitely ought to be asleep by 1am.

 

Get fucked. (not directed at anyone )

 

Hah, it's 1:51 am here.

Go to sleep, man. Keep staring at the ceiling, you'll get bored and fall asleep.

 

"GET FUCKED, FOUR EYES!"

 

I love that movie.
