I usually don't get to sleep until around 6 or 7 in the morning and even then don't get more than about three or four hours actual sleep. It's OK while I'm not working but I start teaching again on Friday and desperately need to regulate my sleep pattern Anyone else suffer from this? Or, better still, anyone who used to suffer from it but found a way of sorting it out - without going on to sleeping tablets or reading Beowolf.

Last night was my first in a while.. Im not sure I even fell asleep before 5 am and its now 9 26.. I've just pulled myself out of bed after laying spread out across the bed widthways for the last hour after I woke from my wonderful 2 hrs sleep.

In the past a lot of mine was coupled with other mental issues.. You dont seem to have mentioned any of those.

You did mention you're in an arts related field.. drawings and concepts and imagery swarm my head if I lay there unable to sleep for more than an hour.. In the end I need to get up and write things down. That might help depending on what is happening in your head while you're unable to sleep.. I know sometimes I dont even seem to have 'thoughts'. Its just an inability to stop 'processing' kind of feeling.

If it happens for more than a day or two, I take valerian and make the effort to avoid electrical stimuli for the last 3 hours I plan on being awake. In the past my psychiatrist used to prescribe temazepam for a week or two to get my pattern back but, I never felt like I had actually been asleep after waking up.

Herbal remedies and prep for bed are the best imho. For once I agree with !@#$%!

Buck Rogers
Insomnia. Feeder was the band. Gash they were too.

Oh yeah, I couldn't work that out either but seems obvious now. They were shit.

Also kudos for being prepared for the world and learning English before you were born. Very organised.

To be honest, nothing Glice has said in this thread so far could really be considered English, as such. From what I understand it's more an elaborate form of incantation created by his ancestors many centuries ago in order to ward off things like plague, and progress. I suppose in that sense, Glice's community is quite similar to the various Amish ones you have in the US. Only where they sell mostly wicker, the main source of income for his comes mostly from selling pegs and multi-packs of brillo pads at what we refer to as boot sales. Saying that, many now blend into modern society quite well, although it's still customary even now to see their women-folk (known within his community as Wombs) wearing headscarves similar to the one shown in this picture.

I usually sleep through it but then when I wake-up I have a vague recollection of having heard an alarm, and turned it off, while being asleep. It's odd.

Does anyone sleepwalk? I used to have a problem with it. Once on a schooltrip to Scotland, I was asleep while I climbed down from my bunkbed, undressed myself and pissed on my friend. It was awesome. Shame I wasn't able to see his face.

Something not that dissimilar happened to me last Christmas. Only in my case the problem wasn't sleepwalking but Smirnoff.
