Sigh........

I would do anything to sleep tonight - but whilst my mind is now shattered, my body remains high as a kite :(

I am "sleeping" about 4 hours a night at the moment, but wake up during that period every hour, for 10 to 15 minutes....

I feel like giving in since I'm not (thank god) Margaret Thatcher to thrive on no rest :p

My usual demons are kicking, the ones that make cigarettes a cure all, and I am inclined to believe that smoking = sleep :mad:

However, since nicotine is a stimulant - this has to be mind trick, pretty good one but I will look upon it as the death throes of the demon, pour a glass of red wine and let them rage themselves away :)

He best try something else - I so have him sorted on the mind trick stuff this time :D

That was a big sigh. I heard it from here. Yeah only people who've done deals with the devil can survive on 4 hours a night sleep. Well that's what I've heard anyway.

Hope tonight breaks the chain and you get some proper rest. Have you tried hot milk? i know it sounds daft but sometimes the old ones are the good ones.

Actually Sherri we have a quitters book club going on here and this months book arrived yesterday..........could give that a go :D

It isn't War and Peace but I have found it "challenging" reading books chosen by others, could work :eek:

There are certainly 3 things on that list I don't do Karri :eek:

One that hit home the most for me was having the laptop in the room - which, in anticipation of not sleeping, is there every night! I even check it is fully charged so I know it will be functioning!

Prob go with the finish the bottle option for tonight mind you......:p

I've been known to resort to the bottle of wine one when things get really bad...:o

Does send you off, though tends to result in a headache the next day.

Whatever you tried last night Mina I really hope it worked for you. :)
