I used to have a lot of problems getting to sleep. This is the best technique that worked for me. |

I`m pretty sure I have insomnia, no, I`m almost positive I have it. But my parents refuse to believe me. I've told them about it, and they tell me it's just my fault for not wanting to go to sleep, or not trying hard enough. I have ADHD, and I think that might have something to do with it, but either way, I know somethings wrong, because I usually only get four or five hours of sleep when I try. There have been nights where I just sit in my room and stare at the wall until morning, which I find extremely disturbing. |

I used to sleep 9 to 10 hours a day, until I went to mechanic school and worked a full-time job for two and a half years. Since then, I can only sleep about an hour and a half at at time, so I try to chain them together into a decent night's sleep. It works sometimes, and sometimes not. That's how I stumbled across LDing. I have no advice to give, I'm sorry, but I feel your pain. |

I've had insomnia all my life, and it can be terrible. At it's worst, I there was a stretch a couple of years back when I was AVERAGING about 45 minutes of sleep total for 5 or 6 days in a row. I was going absolutely insane. I had even tried taking a large dose of Ambien (prescription sleeping pill) with absolutely no help. |

Ah, thank you all so much! It's nice to have people able to relate, I've never met anyone else who can't get to sleep for that reason. I've just been worrying about it lately because I'm going back to highschool after this summer, and don't think it'll be very good if I try and study for exams running on three hours of sleep a night. |
