Sleepless nights........

[crombie09]

I keep seeming to have worse and worse sleep everynight. I dont know if something is bugging me or what. I go to bed and toss and turn for a long time (1-2 hours) before I even fall asleep then always seem to wake up 2-3 times after that. Last night I took 3 tylenol PM because I have to start my new job tommorow and wanted some good rest. Well I took em at 12 tonight and went to bed at 2am ish, its 4:40 and Im up again. I dont know what to do. I dont have health insurance being a bartender, this is just getting to be too much. Someone have any tips?

I've always had a problem with insomnia. Ambien works ok or you may just want to cut caffein from your diet for a while til things get back to normal. Are you taking in any carbs too late at night?

TO BE HONEST, I DID THIS LAST NIGHT AND I THINK THURSDAY NIGIHT. ITS LIKE YOUR BODY IS PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED, HENCE THATS WHY YOU GO TO BED, BUT ITS LIKE YOUR MIND IS GOING A MILLION MILES A MINUTE. I LAYED IN BED LAST NIGHT AT ABOUT 12, DIDN'T FALL ASLEEP FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. TOSSED AND TURNED ALL NIGHT AND WOKE UP AT 5:45 AND AFTER ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES FELT FINE. ITS ODD FOR SURE. I ONLY DON'T DO IT IF I'M DRUNK OR HIT THE PIPE A BIT,LOL.

Yeah I think I need some badass sleeping pills or something. Im not going to cut caffiene right now as Im trying to cut. I have started taking it earlier in the day so its worn off by night time. I just started carb cutoffs 2 days ago and Im still not sleeping well. I do my Muscle Milk, eggs and oats, workout, post workout shake and then some chicken/ brown rice/veggies. After I eat those 4 "meals" I cut all carbs for the rest of the day.

Yeah I have ADHD but I can usually go to sleep, this stuff just started happening. I've taken medicine for it before but nothing really helped and I was tired of trying new stuff that made me feel like shit so I just learned to deal with it. Screw all those pills. I dont drink much anymore, does everyone in the restaurant industry hit the pipe? Haha.

Re: Sleepless nights........

I usually have problems sleeping while im on. Try taking some melatonin or some valerian root. Both are 100% vegan so there is no chance of addiction. They usually help me get to sleep. Alot of times too before I go to bed every night I write out in a list what I didnt get done that day and plan it for the next day. It helps me deal with the fact that my mind is still racing from the day's work. It works for me

crombie, yes they do. the pipe, cigarettes, and booze...thats what happens when you work in a restarurant. if you've seen how they do it on the movie Waiting, thats pretty accurate.

Yeah I know. Thats about all I've done is be in restaurants and I worked at a few apt complexes. Some of the stuff in that movie is BS. I've never ever seen anyone mess with anyones food before.

IMO, THAT MOVIE WAS SPOT ON WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MESSING WITH FOOD PART. I TOO HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE MESS WITH ONES FOOD. EVERY OTHER ASPECT FROM THE PERVERTED MANAGER, TO THE CRAZY PARTIES, TO THE RUDE ASS CUSTOMERS, TO SERVERS BEING NICE TO YOUR FACE BUT CUSSING YOU OUT IN THE BACK IS ALL RIGHT ON THE MONEY.
