Wall of Mouths

Actually I didn’t catch much sleep lately, and sometimes it makes you feel really light in the head, quite comparable to being drunk. Last saturday I was in a pub, and the toilets are upstairs, so when i got back i went from step 12 to step 3, and I am not implying that I have got very long legs here…I need to look after myself alittle better I guess!

normally about 6 hours, but last weeks the average won’t be more than 4 because there are builders on the roof, and they start working early in the morning, but today I slept 8 hours and feeling better now!

a biological theory i once heard about says the human body only needs 4 hours of sleep a night…the rest is “luxury sleep”…but i don´t think so anyway :)

That could be true. I usually sleep 4-6 hours a night, and even now, when I got some days off. I can’t sleep any longer.

About a year ago when I wasn’t working I had been playing a lot of Earth and Beyond (Yeah, I’m not sure why either). So on my 74th hour without sleeping I had come up with a theory that people didn’t need to eat, sleep, or even breathe… that we did these things because we’ve always been told we had to. Lets just say that this was the point when my friends threatened to PUT me to sleep if I didn’t go… hehe, I swear, no adventure in those guys!

Feel? hehe, no no, after that long without sleep, there is no feel. I can only imagine that this is what fasting is like. Since then I do have trouble sleeping. Usually I get in an hour, work, get home and sleep for 5 hours… do the usual, work, get home, sleep for an hour… you get the idea. Until a year ago I’d sleep for 10 hours at a time… I really miss that!

I sleep best if I do some excersise early in the evening (running or cycling, just for an hour or so), but I don’t think it appeals to any of you, does it ;)

actually, cycling in the early evening appeals to me a lot. but at the moment it’s cold and dark in the early evenings, which is not very motivating… roll on springtime!

I do half an hour on an eliptic walking machine then 2 hours of weights every 2nd day. This is a pain in the ass if I’ve not had enough sleep the night before, so I really value my sleep :) I also have 45 min bus ride into work every day, so without enough rest I turn into one crabby mofo.

Whilst travelling this summer I hardly got much sleep at all for two months, and was drinking vast quantities of alcohol every day, and I thought I was losing my mind on several occasions.

Plenty of staying in bed and stopping drinking spirits when I got home sorted me out, though :)

Sounds like you’ve got a poltergeist, pal.

I’ll come round your house in my vicar’s outfit and perform an exorcism, if you’re up for it.

Title: sleep

i usually sleep about 6-7 hours a night. but i’m still tired no matter how much sleep i get. i have M.E (chronic fatigue syndrome) which is extremely annoying because it changes my life quite alot. obviously M.E means im tired all the time but some people just dont realise how bad it is, i can sleep whenever i want (sometimes good on long journeys) but there is always a feeling of tiredness, last year i was doing my french gcse listening exam and fell asleep, even the other day i was walking down stairs and fell asleep, which was actually quite funny looking back. i can go to sleep in the day if i feel cant go on, but when i wake up i actually feel worse most of the time. its very strange and there doesnt seem to be a cause for it.

Does anyone else have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

boozing and sleeping is not an option with my buddies around. The first one to fall unconcious will be subjected to much hilarity. So I’ve learnt to spend weekends awake through sheer fear of what could happen as I am always the first to pull out the razor :D .
