Lately I haven't been able to sleep at night. I try to go to bed but it is futile. I've reached the point where I have to put movies in my DVD player and fall asleep during them. AT times, I am well into my 2nd movie before it works.

Tonight, I'm going to try and go to bed very very early. I just really don't know how to settle myself so I can get some sleep. Thank god I'm out of classes and this isn't a concern. I'm just ready to get on a normal schedule again. Since finals have been over - I've been going to bed at the same time, falling asleep much later, and then I have a lot of trouble when my alarm goes off around 7.
 
Have you tried the "masturbate-til-it-feels-like-your-arm-is-going-to-fall-off" method?
 
Here's my standard cure: one or two benedryl, one glass of wine and an orgasm.

Have you tried the three together yet, Lav?

Is not.

Pansy still thinks he's a man...




sorry, once you get those breast implants and start sucking Osama's dick, you are not.

HI lavender...have you tried any herbs, such as kava~kava or valerian?

Chewing a root or two is often suggested by psycho....er, naturopaths.
 
I know it's the only way to get to sleep right now, lav, but you're making a routine of the movie thing.

You need to try something else.

It sounds like you have some anxiety in your life. You might need some temporary meds.
 
Nope, not anxiety.

I think it's because my body hasn't let me get over test schedule. When you're studying for tests and getting stuff done you go on very little sleep. I just don't think my body has gone back to a normal pattern yet.
 
And maybe some observation and counceling in addtion to the meds... lol

Professional school students quite often have breakdowns during and after exams.

I posted a helpful link here a couple of weeks ago about exam stress when I saw Lavvy exhibiting the classic signs.

A two week voluntary admission to a psych ward sometimes can save a young life from sliding down the drain into life as a crack ho. On Christmas day I hear the potato flakes with canned gravy are yummy with the applesauce! Better than Ramen!

I had oodles of classmates on Valium during exams when I was in law school....like robots they were.

Many are successful alcoholi.....er partners and judges now.

Lavvy is surely well on her way.

Be well Lavvy. PM me if I can offer 1 on 1 counselling.

Agreed. Except the wine is not necessary. Just for fun. ;)
