sleeping trouble

I get most of my good ideas at night, but what happened
tonight I can't excuse. I took a three-hour nap this
afternoon cause I was bored, then stayed up till 2am. Tried
to go to sleep, failed. Then I went to sleep at 3am and had
two nightmares in succession, while in sleep, and then woke
up at 4am. Wide awake. Not tired.

Do I have a problem? This is the first time this has
happened in quite a while. But I'm having times in the
morning where I really don't wanna get out of bed, and I try
to wake up but can't be bothered. It has caused me to miss
class.

Does anyone here suffer from sleeping disorders? I haven't
been to a doctor in 10 years, and never been to a
psychologist. Should I be concerned?

"HOwdy, Carl! Good morning!"

"Hey there, little guy, it is a good morning - IT'S THREE IN
THE MORNING!!!"

I have that problem too. One of the strange psychological
problems I have and still don't understand is that whenever
I get tired (around 7-9am) I feel the need to expell any
last bit of energy by doing something drastic like staying
up even longer, busing around the city, visiting friends,
etc. I just can't seem to submit to my bed when I know I
should. Makes reality really fucked up too. And yeh, I get
creative ideas too when I stay up like that. But they're
ideas I think are fucked up shit when I'm of sound mind.

I had insomnia a while back, but one of those mega headache
pills cured that...

also, if you want to get tired, do something physical.. call
your friends and go out and play some football or
something.

cut back on the coffee.. don't drink anything with caffeine,
in fact...

seeing the sun is important.. get sunlight on your eyes/body
so that your body actually registers the fact that it has
been day

get away from the computer. it may seem like you're awake
and active, but you're just sitting there.

I don't have any sleeping troubles. Sometimes I sleep too
much. Especially sundays mornings.

thanks for the advice, i'll try that. i'm also going to try
to quit cigarettes again - stimulants likely aren't helping.

I hate to tell you this but you are perfectly fucking
normal. Almost every human being displays exactly the same
type of behaviour.

weed helps too.

and i fall asleep watching south park episodes or something
pretty much every night - it helps shut my mind off, cuz if
im in silence my inner monologue just wont shut up.

I'm a night person. I want to be a morning person. So it's a
constant battle. I tend to stay up later and later. Next
thing I know it's gotten totally out of hand.

I usually go to bed between 4:00 and 6:00 am, and wake up
between 12:00 an 12:30 everyday. I work nights. My bed is
also a complete piece of shit, and, even though the couch
downstairs is also a piece of shit, I sleep on it from time
to time as a hiatus from my actual piece of shit bed.

what I was trying to say was that, I have a strange sleep
schedule, and I don't really consider it a disorder. As long
as you get 6-8 hours of sleep, you should be okay. If you
miss a night of sleep, your body will eventually catch up by
making you more tired. If you don't get tired, then, well,
you've got insomnia. :D

Oh, and I've never had a bad dream from staying up late. So
I can't be of service on that matter.

Don't take 2 hr naps, and try to go to bed/get out of bed
around the same time every day.
