I find the harder you try to fall asleep the harder it is to fall alseep. I'm seriously considering asking a doctor for some sleeping pills because unlike you I can't sleep for no reason. At least you can't sleep because you're scared I'm sure Bernice will understand why you can't meet up with her tomorrow.

I'm supposed to meet with her in less than 3 hours. I don't think I can.....I don't want to fall asleep at the wheel or something.

I didn't know you were having trouble sleeping. I took a light dosage of sleeping pills but they didn't help at all. I was still wide awake so I stopped taking them. I'm afraid of trying higher dosages.

My mom asked if I wanted to sleep at her house but I told her that wouldn't help.

What movie was it? You should have watched it from under a blanket.

Stay Alive.


I kept covering my eyes and I should have just not watched it. I went out to pick up my parents from the airport and when I came home he was watching it. He said it was almost over and then we could go out. Well it wasn't almost over and I got freaked!

I just told him that I can't sleep and he just went: "Ugh..." and started snoring again.

I think Bernice will only be at DL until the afternoon. I want to go to DL but not when I can't sleep properly.

Awwe. Yeah I don't think you should meet with her, you'll end up falling asleep at some point and it would suck if it was behind the wheel. Yeah sometimes I can sleep pretty well but since I've been in Scotland it takes me at least 2 hours to fall asleep everynight sometimes much longer. Last night I went to bed at 2 even though I was sooo tired at 11, but I just stayed wide awake in bed until about 6 am and then finally slept but it was a very light sleep and I could hear everything so it feels like I didn't sleep at all.

I tried sleeping and it's not working. I would fall asleep for like 2 minutes or 5 minutes and then wake up real fast. That's not good that you aren't sleeping. Maybe you should see a doctor about that.

dh does that to me all the time. I've never heard of Stay alive, Scotland is so far behind on movies. I actually want to like horror movies but everytime I get freaked out. Even if it's supposed to be ajoke or just really bad. Like I was scared in scary movie lol. I don't think it was supposed to be scary but it freaked me out lol. Have you tried listening to music, sometimes music will take my mind of a scary movie.

Yeah I think she'll understand. It would not be good for you to fall asleep behind the wheel. Are you in a safe neighbourhood? Maybe a walk and some fresh air might help?

I hate horror films. I can't handle them at all. I know what you mean about Scary Movie. That scared me too!

I live in one of the safest cities in Los Angeles. We have TONS of cops, which is good. I don't know how safe it is to take a walk right now though. It's really dark outside.

Yeah I think I will. Especially because I'm afraid about getting jetlag for my trip in a couple of weeks and not being able to enjoy the park. I can't sleep on planes as it is and now that I have trouble sleeping it will be even worse but I don't really know how to go about asking a doctor for sleeping pills, I don't want him to think I'm some kind of addict and then not give me any. I had a doctor think I was addicted to tylenol 3 once. It was the first time I had met him, and I had a sinus infection so my previous doctor game me tylenol 3 with codiene and told me I'll need more when it runs out but he can't prescribe me a bigger one because that's as big as it comes or something like that. So I ran out of pills and went to a walk in clinic and asked the doctor for tylenol 3 and he refused! He thought I was addicted and he also said I didn't have a sinus infection and that the pain would pass, I was in so much pain it really sucked. I went to another doctor shortly after and he gave me some red yucky medicine but it worked lol.

Yeah it's probably not a good idea. When I was in Canada, we lived in a great city in a great location and I still wouldn't walk outside when it's dark. And I guess it's not a good idea to go out alone after you just watched a scary movie I wasn't thinking. Hmm, I can't think what will help. You tried watching tv and that didn't help. What about breathing exercises like they teach you in yoga. Where you relax your body starting at your toes all the up to your head and focus on your breathing. Sometimes that helps me...

That's terrible about the doctor thinking you were addicted to tylenol. I told my doctor that I was having trouble sleeping. At the time I also wanted to throw up and had a lack of appetite. He prescribed the low dosage meds but they didn't work.

oh weird! That's how I feel right now but I think it's because I ate a pound of doritos last night lol. I wonder why you felt like you wanted to throw up, do you still get that feeling?

Yeah, I don't want to go on a walk right now. It's hot in our room! It's 80 degrees. I have the fan on too. I don't know what to do.....this sucks.

I did recently but that's because I was under so much stress.

 

[XTinabell]

Oh I cannot sleep when it's hot. Take a cool shower I bet that will help.

Oh from work? Your job sounds really stressful to me. And it sounds like you work with a bunch of mean women.

 

[eatmypixiedust]

At work I'm often times under a lot of stress. It mostly comes from my customers. All of my co-workers each have their own stresses from the customers they handle. One of my customers has been ridiculous and is very picky.

 

[XTinabell]

That sucks. I used to work in retail and I hated the customers more than my coworkers and I hated my coworkers pretty bad. It was all catty women who fought over sales. We were on straight commision pay, it was fierce I hated it and it felt wonderful to quit. How are your art classes going?

 

[eatmypixiedust]

The women I work with are okay, only one or two are kinda mean but I don't talk to them much. It is a stressful job. The customers push me, I push our overseas office and have to stay late to call them (due to the time difference) and they push their production manager who often times ignores them.

Last week I got so many calls in a row from different buyers all in the same company. It was horrible and they all asked the same question. They want their order now, blah blah blah.

Yeah I would say that's a stressful situation lol. Do you do anything to relieve your stress after work? They say you need a third place other than work and home to help rid your stress.
