    I was in a terrible cycle where I couldn't sleep at night, staying up till 6 am for no reason, then only waking up at 4 and 5 in the day, my body clock was all over the place, and I hated it, worst feeling in the world goin to sleep when its dark an waking up when its starting to get dark, my solution was, force myself to stay awake for 24, hours, have a 2 hour sleep, then wake up, do a few things and then go back to bed about 11, that night. Think I woke up then about 5 am but stayed awake till the next night, and tried to keep doin it.. Now I'm in a nice routine of goin to bed at 11, or 12, and waking up at around 7 or 8 in the mornings and I feel great now, :D a lot more things can be done during the day, and eating patterns are fixed too, instead of eating stupid things at 4 am

    Can you go in to detail about your insomnia.
    I find it hard to sleep so I have 2 tablets I take that make me tired (more dizzy than tired).
    2 nights ago i got 3-4 hours sleep. Tired druing the day and then come 0000 when I try to sleep again I just lye there for hours bored - so i get up and try again and eventually I can sleep. Endless cycle.

    I know this magic too. It's very special.

    I can't take sleeping tablets. I tried to sleep at about half 2 last night, and was awake from about 5 till 8 in the morning. I am a zombie today :(

    Sex is a great cure for insomnia, that happy, content, dozy feeling you get afterwards, and if you dont have anyone to do it with... well, use your imagination..

    I have the tools! They work for a while at least

    Night Owl, everyone I live with is in bed by 11 and it's from 11pm - 3am that my brain works at it's best, In the morning I start work at 10am and don't start to feel awake until about 11:30am. I also find that whatever time I go to bed at getting up in the morning is always hell
