what's the point in exercising, eating well and generally taking good care of my body if at the end of day I lie in my bed for 6 consecutive hours without being able to fall asleep?
summon the rape demon to thwack you with 5 pounds of melatonin
>>79614058What's keeping you awake? Thoughts? People around you?
>>79614058same happens to me, it sucks, it sucks, it sucks
Ahh yeah, running doesn't help my anxiety sometimes, nerves still shot, still depressed. Crippling as fuuck.
>>79614089It's like my body wants to rest and is clearly exhausted but my mind is alert.there is stuff I need to fix irl and im dodging responsibilities so that explains some of it. but im just jealous of the people who lie down for 15 minutes and *poof* are gone.>>79614114I utterly depleted my body yesterday waking up early, strict routines, exersiced like crazy and did everything seemingly perfect. yet the thought machine still doesn't shut down.
i got medicine to help with my insomnia works 100%
>>79614121You and I have opposite problems but we're both exhausted. I sleep too much, chronic fatigue
>>79614058Regular exercise can cure insomnia, especially exercise strenuous enough to tire muscle
>>79614058Because you're aware that you're falling asleep and can't do it. Like standing on the edge of a bridge and not being able to jump off.Or it could be like OCD. Always something off, can't get your head to stop thinking about pink elephants.
>>79614479>Always something offthats true i cannot relax even if im supposed to in comfortable environments. been described to always appear "uneasy and on edge". well whatever..>>79614452i do that already. every advice in the book. its 99.9% a mental thing>>79614437sorry to hear that.
If I could just sleep like a normal person my life would be okay, not great, but fucking bearable. But I can't have that can I?
Take a week of vacation and do nothing else except try to exhaust yourself completely and then sleep with earplugs and a blindfold with no alarm set.
