Especially to the friend of mine who suffers from insomnia on a rather regular basis.

Only escaping the sheer hell they put him through with alot of mental "abuse" (best that I can come up with..). It's stress, I believe, that does it to him. Stress of his family treating him like **** all the time. It sucks. I hope he can get out of it real soon but can't until he gains his full disability from the military for serious back and knee injuries he suffered back during Desert Storm.

As for me, I prefer my sleep, thankyouverymuch! I usually get it in about 4 hour "increments"... nap in the afternoon and at bedtime. I try to sleep in as much as possible on my days off (which are during the week as opposed to the weekends... which are our gaming times...)

I have insomnia, and stress in my life does make it much worse. The last con I went to I was up for four days straight and hadn't slept well before that. Driving on the way home alone I ended up getting sick on the side of the road and then found a rest area and got a hold of some people behind me to find me and proceeded to have about four panic attacks while I waited and hid under my steering wheel. Yup sleep is good if you can get it. Hey look I'm not asleep yet. YAY!

:edit: Ooooo....still not sleepin and the day isn't looking so good for it. Woo!

The friend of mine finally got some sleep, he says, between Sunday night and Monday morning. Don't know just how much. His is bad enough where the sleeping pills his doc gave him don't work alot of times.... and the near-constant pain of his back doesn't help either... and the only time he really SLEEPS is when he's past that point of sheer exhaustion.

I had another friend about 5 years ago or so suffer panic attacks from stress induced by his worrying about his father who'd had a heart attack at the time.... he'd freak out on long, dark stretches of 4-lane highways...

The only times I can't really sleep is when I'm at a strange place (usually hotel rooms) the first night away from home and when I'm all worked up (read: excited) about something like a convention I'm gonna be at.

Just a reminder, don't sleep and post.

If I fall asleep I will try to remember that...

That sounds like an ad campaign reminding people to post responsibly...

Are you saying we shouldn't post responsibly?

Are you saying we shouldn't post responsibly?

I didn't say that, I just tend not to get my morals from television.

Do we ever?
