Anyone having a hard time getting quality sleep lately?

[Lucas156]

Seems like the past week or so I have been dog tired every day. At night I consistently wake up and during the day I cant seem to keep my eyes open during mind numbing tasks. Anybody else having these issues? Im normally in bed for 8 hours so that doesnt seem to be the issue

Me! And when I'm not waking up, I'm having nightmares or weird disjointed dreams.

Only due to my mattress... it's about time to be replaced, I think.

Like my mother used to say "Sleep is over-rated,git ur butt out of bed"

I've never been a good sleeper. I always toss and turn and never actually fall asleep until the wee hours of the morning!

When I was in grade school, I use to have dreams about going to the restroom, only to wake up from peeing all over myself

Thanks for that info man.

Been up working on computers late this week, then I cant turn off my mind.

Mee too! Last night I dreamed that The newspaper started publishing info about my LTCH. Then I woke up, and the voices calmed me down by telling me to clean the guns, even though I had lost my Tin foil hat. Help, Mr. Wizzard!!

With the time change and perpetual darkness this time of year (leave for work in the dark, come home in the dark), I'm all screwed up as well. I need to get some exercise or something to burn off some energy....

i wake up constantly during the night and never feel refreshed, no matter how much sleep i get. like a cat, i can lay down and take a nap at any time. been this way for most of my life. i choose to deal with it rather than take Ambien or some other sleep-aid.

Thing is, I'm usually the one who's asleep before my head hits the pillow and sleeps like a rock for the duration.
Not lately.
Something has me keyed up and I won't sleep well until I figure out what it is.
A pattern that's plagued me for years.

 

[slacker]

Me too. Plus it sucks going to work when its dark out, then having it be dark out when you leave.

I could not imagine living in Alaska where it is dark out for most of the day.

Today in Denali National Park, Alasksa: Sunrise: 10:20 AM Sunset: 3:30 PM

Something about this makes me think that it wasn't "grade school".




Just playin'

Yes. Lately I have had a hard time sleeping. Even when I do sleep I feel worn out and tired most of the day. I know what is causing this though.

I'm sure there is a reason for your problem. You just have to figure out what it is.

My sleep pattern is way off - going to bed earlier than usual and getting up much earlier than usual (I attribute the change to this last deer season). Other than that, no trouble sleeping.

When I have trouble sleeping, I get up and stay up until I am sure that I'll fall asleep when I hit the pillow. The next day, I am usually pretty tired - but it seems to solve the problem for the following night. Might be something to try.

Well funny thing is I normally get a straight eight hours max. For instance I was so tired yesterday all day and last night I couldn't hardly sleep.

Sleep.... I thought that said Sheep

Sure, there are many other ways to spend $250.00, but if you're the nerdy science-type this may be worth a gander...
