I'm on four hours sleep, been up for 20, chugged a bottle of melatonin and am chewing benadryl like it's loving pez.

Someone get the gently caress over here and hit me in the head with a hammer. I'll give you, like, 50 bucks.

Post what you're doing besides sleeping ITT

It's when you experience things like life, but not real. Like falling from airplanes, getting shot in the chest, knifed in the throat, sex with a hot partner, teeth start falling out and general is a wonderful thing to experience.

Melatonin has never worked for me but it might be because I'm mentally ill and my brain is like really fuckin broken

Instead I just stay up until 7 am three times a week

Didn't sleep last night and looks like I'm not gonna sleep tonight. Listening to Sunbather by Deafheaven b/c I feel like listening to some weirdo scream about trees or whatever because I'm so so loving tired but can't sleep so gently caress life

I'm just repeatedly baffled at how common it is that people need pharmacological help for the most basic human functions. You'd think maybe at that point they'd consider some lifestyle changes but no, they just up the dosage

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
I must not sleep. Sleep is the mind-killer. Sleep is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my sleep. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the sleep has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Staring at screens will keep your brain running, but sometimes brains don't stop going.
It's annoying.
You can:
1. Drink Sleepytime tea (the one with the snoozing bear)
2. Eat a small amount of orange food
3. Get up and clean your tub (?)
4. Go into another room and read a boring book.
5. Run around a lot earlier in the day (you gotta plan ahead)
6. Get it in bed and wear an eye mask and plugs in your ears
6a. Lie on your back, cross your hands over your chest and breathe steadily
7. Count backwards from 100, visualizing each number being written and then erased
8. No sleep til Brooklyn

this isn't an "lol you'll die" thing either. a little bit of alcohol will set off all your sedatives. it's why it's in nyquil

If you aren't a big drinker this would work.
If you are a lush like most of us it won't.

Thanks to obummer not legalizing it and clogging the doctors office I gotta wait 2 months to see the doctor to get my weed card and in that time I will have a real job dealing with retards all day.
