Sleep issues

Brock Landers · 10-22-09, 08:12 PM

Now my dr will come up with some other drug combo, fukkin quacks i swear to god, Maybe i'll just stay tired the rest of my life now. Gambling withdrawl is nothing compared to all the other life changes you have to make when you are a walking bet machine for 14 years.

mmike032 · 10-22-09, 08:16 PM

if 1 doesnt work take 2.
if 2s good, than 3s better.

Chi_archie · 10-22-09, 08:17 PM

screw the drugs, just try melatonin

Team Ramrod · 10-22-09, 08:19 PM

about 2 hours before you go to bed have a helluva workout and then take a hot shower or hot tub if you have access to one, the local gym should have one but wear a condom in it and dont use your bed except for phukkin and sleeping its not good to hang in the bedroom except for those to things.

spurginobili · 10-22-09, 08:20 PM

Exercise.

Brock Landers · 10-22-09, 08:21 PM

Archie, good to hear from you again my man, I tried melatonin a while ago and it just didn't do a thing for me.

mmmmike, Ambien CR is too expensive to screw with and use up that fast, talk about being screwed either way. The klonopin is free from my insurance though, maybe should take more of those, they are only .5 **

mmike032 · 10-22-09, 08:25 PM

my wife takes klonipin, I dont care for them, make my legs feel like jello.
Have you asked for Xanax?
get doc to write you a stronger script for the Ambien or try something else, after a while you build a tolerance to any drug.

I would recommend Jack Daniels but than your just trading 1 vice for another.

I'm going to fantasize i bet Illinois +10 1/2 and Iowa +1 1/2 and they are going to both win, that will help

paco · 10-22-09, 08:26 PM

1800 silver

Brock Landers · 10-22-09, 08:26 PM

also going to add Minnesota (NFL) +5 1/2, that feels like a gimmie.

mmike032 · 10-22-09, 08:26 PM

dude yer slipping...
relaspe is right around the corner

sickler · 10-22-09, 08:28 PM

Melatonin works, but not all Melatonin is made equal. I tried a brand that didn't work.

Brock Landers · 10-22-09, 08:29 PM

mmmike, if i had ANY souce of cash maybe i'd agree with you, but thats totally impossible. If someone put a gun to my head i couldn't get money to a book for a game. And to think, i used to ** Pinnacle 8 dimes at a time 4 years ago

goldengoat · 10-22-09, 08:37 PM

i usually sleep better after I bust my ass at the gym

maybe take in less caffeine too.....try some green tea or milk instead

Chi_archie · 10-22-09, 08:40 PM

Brock block this site, change your password with a 26 character nonsense word and move on.... you are gonna find a way to relapse. if you know the lines you are already "white knuckling" it

pull a 72 hr all nighter... you'll sleep fine that 3rd night

pavyracer · 10-22-09, 09:04 PM

eat more so you can sleep more

Richkas · 10-22-09, 09:13 PM

2 Norco, 1 soma, and one sleeping pill is what I take every night to sleep. Plus a few one hits. Works every time.

fvck yea

who needs a liver anyway

Brock Landers · 10-22-09, 09:19 PM

Richie!

With that mix going on i don't think you are long for this world

zubzub · 10-22-09, 09:37 PM

Exercise, as mentioned above a few times, some form of physical exertion combined with Herbal remedies, Chinese Medicine...you live in an urban area? Populated? If so theres a Chinese herbalist somewhere around you...Herbs are the answer.

Everything humans need is here, quit the pharmaceuticals, they are just a path to trouble.

Roller · 10-22-09, 09:49 PM

Clear the Mind and the body will follow.

At some point you choose.
Either you are it's Beautch.
Or it's yours.
Choose.

Best of Luck....................

L2Gunz · 10-22-09, 09:51 PM

Brock...you should exercise/workout as least 5 days a week. Get on a regular routine..eat right..smoke some sweet cheeba...and before you know it pal...sleeping like a baby...those pills are not the answer!!!

This is the key. But it's not that simple.
You ever hear a construction guy complain about not being able to sleep?
Ever hear a farmer complain.....?

Go dig ditches for 10 hours and see how you sleep.

The General · 10-22-09, 10:04 PM

I've been down this road, had many days suffering from a phobia concerning lack of sleep. The only answer I ever found was to hunker down, deal with the misery and accept the fact no one has died from not sleeping. I always have to leap back to the 'no pain, no gain', 'mind over matter' mentality.

I do know that drugs of any kind are not the answer for me.

I sympathize with the condition, but have no answer that will make it easier.

Best

(Edit) Exercise is definitely a great suggestion and takes care of several problems at once.

pavyracer · 10-22-09, 10:07 PM

I thought eating 10 McMuffins at a time helps you to sleep.

InTheHole · 10-22-09, 10:09 PM

quart of vodka should do the job

MartinBlank · 10-22-09, 10:09 PM

Yeah, I am with the physical labor group.

Show me a guy who busts his ass working hard, and I guarantee you he sleeps like a baby.

Now, if you are unemployed, gambling degen with no work ethic who watches 15 hours of television a day, then yeah---I guess sleep would be hard to come by.

mmike032 · 10-22-09, 10:17 PM

its true...
days that I work I sleep like a baby.
days I dont, cant sleep for shit.

havent worked this week and havent been sleeping good

Chi_archie · 10-22-09, 10:26 PM

c'mon and sleep it up

moses millsap · 10-22-09, 11:01 PM

pot is the only answer, smoke lots of it
