Hmm I was just curious if anyone suffers from this...I think if I continue my sleeping habits as I do, I'll become one sooner or later. I know this is a random topic, but I noticed that VH1 has this block of music videos at three in the morning, and they call it "Insomnia Theatre" or something like that. Oh well. Anyone? blink.gif

Yeah, I'm an insomniac. Adult Swim on Cartoon Network keeps me up. It's the only place I can get my dosage of Family Guy.

I'm not insomniac.
I need my sleep.

Once in awhile, I have trouble sleeping, but I always manage to go to bed before 4 in the morning.

Nah. Sometimes I wish I did though, so I can actually finish my homework and not take naps. Though, I'm glad I can force myself to sleep.

Same thing here. Ever since school ended, my sleeping patterns have been changed quite a bit. Now I got to bed possibly around five or six am. huh.gif

i have discovered the cure to insomnia.

i used to be an insomniac. then i had to read the autobiography of benjamin franklin for language arts. but it was very boring and no matter what time i tried to read it, i would always fall asleep. so now, whenever i cant sleep, i just pick it up and read it.

so, if you have insomniam just buy the autobiography of benjamin franklin

~~~

any other cures? and if you took my advice and bought the book, hows it working out for you?
airam
i read the dictionary, i have small one in my room. i tried it last night. i think it worked.
synkro

Just AJ
In my opinion, whenever I need to go to sleep(my mom does this too), I watch The Hulk lol laugh.gif
ichiban

my method is cute, i've been practicing it since i was 5 and i swear to god i do this when i can't sleep. so i pretend i'm a princess, and there's an earthquake, and i get into a coma, and i wake up in a carriage in a nice warm bed (my bed) and there's a prince that rescued me and we fall in love :) it's terrible when i'm sleeping with my boyfriend though because he snores! so when he starts i scream STOP! and he stops.

haha, that is cute

I think about hot guys or I think about history class. The first one, I'm not sure why it makes me go to sleep, but the second one it's fairly obvious.
