$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Stratovarius', 'I')'ve been having serious trouble sleeping lately and me not getting sleep = domino effect (on weekdays). I usually get really pissed off and frustrated because then I'm not allowed to have my morning exercise unless I want 2 hours of sleep with it. Also I end up nodding off in class...not a good thing since I need all A's otherwise I'm a failure (I'm of Asian descent).

What kind of tips does everyone have so I can get my 7-8 hours of sleep?

Finish college as quickly as possible and get a job where you can start late.

I'm not really an insomniac. However my day cycle seems to be shifted compared to everyone elses. I have real troubles getting into sleep and even bigger troubles waking up again.

I can get up early with some effort and have done so during my whole education. However it never felt comfortable. It was a huge relief to find a job which allows me to work flex hours. It greatly enhanced my fittness and productivity.

Ya, that's the number 1 reason I despise college. I can't go to sleep when I want to (as in, before 11 pm usually :( ) and I try to get up at 6:10 to exercise but sometimes I don't get to sleep fast enough so I'm like "fuck it" and I set my alarm for 1 hour later.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Shannymara', '[')url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melatonin]Melatonin[/url] is what works for me most of the time. If that doesn't work, diphenhydramine.


Do you do a Tea for the Melatonin ? I think I need to get me some.

My job is such that I am expected to be on duty 24 hours per day. I have learned to catnap and now that's how I sleep even when I'm not working. A nap in the afternoon, a nap in the night, and a sleep in the morning.
