This is my normal. Im always up at this time. I have a wierd sleep pattern. I go to bed at around 8:00pm, wake up at 9:15 pm,go back to sleep. Wake up at 10:30pm, look at clock,go back to sleep. Then wake up once again at around midnight, and once again look at clock, go back to sleep. Then, nine times out of ten i wake up at around 1:30 am. Then i just usually get up and put the coffee on. I HATE IT!!!!!

It hits me occasionally. Go for a walk, listen to the night sounds. Or just rest and let it come to you. There's always a reason when we can't/don't sleep.

What people call 'Night' is my 'Day'. Unless I get called out on a job/appointment, durring the sunlight hours.

My patterns are so throwed off that I dont even try anymore. Sleepless night? Just stay up. 48 hours without sleep and you WILL sleep the next night........getting up is an entirely different battle.

I HATE IT!!!!! I thought I was the only one, I work 2nd shift, never been a morning person, get home around midnight and lucky to fall asleep by 5:30 or 6am. Then I sleep for an hour and a half or two, awake for an hour, fall out for another hour or two, then lay there trying to get some more. I never feel rested anymore. I work really hard in a hot factory and I'm finding it harder and harder to focus and remember what I'm right in the middle of doing. Tried the different PM medicines but they don't help much. Can't afford to go to a dr., had to drop the insurance to afford the rent when the boyfriend left.

I've had insomnia for years, as in there are days on end that I will not sleep at all. The great thing is that after that I will sleep for days on end. Difference between insomnia and the 'night life' sleeping schedule.

Can't afford to go to a dr., had to drop the insurance to afford the rent when the boyfriend left. I have even tried strong presciption drugs. They work halfway good the first night. Then after that, not at all. Its a real bummer. Im tired all the time. And my eyes are always red. Ppl are always asking me whats wrong with my eyes.

I tend to get the dark circles under my eyes, but i haven't had any redness since i stopped wearing contacts. What prescriptions have you tried?

There were times when I would sleep 24 hours. I'd fall asleep at 7:00pm, wake up at 8:00pm and not know a day has passed. (no, I don't do drugs). I thought only an hour had passed, till I noticed everyone had on diffrent clothes. For some reason I would still go to bed that night and fall asleep.
