    I have gotten 4 hours sleep over the last 2 days and have work at 8am, but I'm wide awake. Any of you amazing people out there have ideas as to how I can fall asleep without getting off boards?

    It would be much appreciated! :D

    Well you see, there is your problem, you need to get off boards dude!

    However, if you want to dream while still awake what you will need is a table tennis ball, some masking tape, a red lightbulb and a radio with earphones.

    You put the red bulb in a lamp and shine the lamp towards your face. You tune the radio to static white noise and put in the earphones.
    What you then do is cut the table table tennis ball in half and with the masking tape tape one half over either eye.

    You then sit and wait. Sensory deprivation = mucho fun non-hallucigenic drug induced hallucinations.

    Enjoy :)

    *as always, consult a licensed specialist before accepting advice on the internet at face value*

    Human body cycles (including sleep) are regulated by the naturally secreted hormone Melatonin.

    Production of melatonin by the pineal gland is inhibited by light and permitted by darkness. For this reason melatonin has been called "the hormone of darkness" and its onset each evening is called the Dim-Light Melatonin Onset (DLMO). Secretion of melatonin as well as its level in the blood, peaks in the middle of the night, and gradually falls during the second half of the night, with normal variations in timing according to an individual's chronotype.

    Until recent history, humans in temperate climates were exposed to only about six hours of daylight in the winter. In the modern world, artificial lighting reduces darkness exposure to typically eight or fewer hours per day all year round. Even low light levels inhibit melatonin production to some extent, but over-illumination can create significant reduction in melatonin production. Since it is principally blue light that suppresses melatonin,[30] wearing glasses that block blue light[31] in the hours before bedtime may avoid melatonin loss. Use of blue-blocking goggles the last hours before bedtime has also been advised for people who need to adjust to an earlier bedtime, as melatonin promotes sleepiness.


    Without leaving boards? You can get Melatonin over the counter, but this is is sourced from mushrooms and other flora. A pharmacist could reccomend how to dose it at the point of sale.

    I shouldnt need to tell you how much blue wavelength light comes blaring out from your monitor. Much especially on boards.

    Fapping is of course also not a bad idea, iirc it releases pretty healthy doses of serotonin.

    I always only sleep a few hours each night around this time of the year too. I think it's a Midsummer thing. Daylight just after 4am and birds cheeping in the window. Plus it's very warm getting these last few nights. Get eye patches, earplugs and an icepack.

    OP, you could have solved this the same way you can solve pretty much any problem. Set something on fire.
