Sleep .....

[socks 32,253]

I have tried every natural remedy under the sun to no avail prescription meds are ok for a week but as soon as I get used to them they just don't have any effect ...

 

I also have outbursts like bird has but as I get older they seem to be less and less thank god ... It's a bit wierd when your wife wakes you up and you are fighting with your pillow ............

My sleeping pattern is knackered anyway, just can't switch my brain off. Really knackered recently, hardly have any sleep and then when i do wake up maybe 2/3 hours later, my heads busting, eyes are hurting etc. Probably sit at the computer too much!! Will have to limit my useage and hopefully it'll sort it out....

How do you do it? Naturally? Or as proscribed? I found out, only last week, that I've begun to slip back into a natural sleep pattern. It fascinates me.

 

See, I read this article ~ BBC or something ~ about sleep. And how this 'solid eight hours of uninterrupted sleep' thing is a load of old bollocks. Or, rather, new bollocks.

 

Fact is, that was probably foisted upon us by the government, along with the Industrial Revolution. Simply a way of ensuring the workers lives were regulated to best suit the owners. Like pub closing times. No rhyme or reason to it. Just control.

 

Anyway, it seems, since the dawn of time, man has always (naturally) slept twice in a night. We'd have our first sleep. Wake up. Become fully lucid and functional. Do a bit of something or other. Then get back down for our second sleep. How about that?

 

And this is recorded, down through time. References all over the place, in literature. It's like women being laid on their backs to give birth. Totally unnatural. So is a solid block of sleep. We force this programming on ourselves.

 

I'm long since retired now. I can sleep when ever I choose. And that's how I came to realise I was sleeping twice. I'd go abed. Fall asleep. Then, I'd wake up. Fully awake. Totally aware. I'd have a good think on things. Get anything sorted out in my head. Check my phone for messages. What ever.

 

Then, satisfied that I'd done, I'd very deliberately roll over and go spark out for my second bout of kip. I always called this my 'REM Sleep'. Because this was the session where I'd more likely dream.

 

And I thought this was just an aberration. That I'd fallen into some 'bad' habit. That I was lazy for going back to sleep. Turns out, I've simply reverted to the natural pattern of the human animal.

 

How about that?

Don't know about anything else but that thread did it for me !! Lol lol

My sleeping pattern is knackered anyway, just can't switch my brain off. Really knackered recently, hardly have any sleep and then when i do wake up maybe 2/3 hours later, my heads busting, eyes are hurting etc. Probably sit at the computer too much!! Will have to limit my useage and hopefully it'll sort it out....

i can sleep as soon as me head hits the pillow..............now i do have a confession of when i was in me teens ,..i remember waking on the toilet with me mum holding me hand saying its alright wayne............i couldnt work out what was going on ,...then i remembered shiteing on the living room carpet in pitch dark and it was very strange...........

will never forget it.........when we told me nan i had been sleep walking and what i had done in the living room,..............she said it was because i was eating loads of green strawberries from the garden that day...........and i swear she was right as i have never sleep walked since that night many many years ago...........

that was a weird night but was true ,.......im not embarrased and still make some friends chuckle when they talk about sleep walking..

this insomnia is it more common in people who have had alot of millitary exsperience ..........as the mind is trained all hours and constantly needs occupying...........

my mate suffers terribly and he was in the army but he cant sleep at night ,..........

edit too say i exspect there are plenty of off spring being made from these sleepless nights........lol ,.......you studs..

in birds case .,.....grab the lamp lol
