figured we could use are own thread. i have RLS. so they say. i think it might be nerve damage in my back. i've had a few brutal falls on the tail bone. now when i sit for more than a few minutes i get bad back pains. at night these pains travel from my lower back and shoot out throughout my body. then there's the itching and twitching. i'll be awaken, just as i slip into sleep, by the smallest most irritating itch on my earlobe. WTF? then i start to drift off again and my foot starts to hurt so i have to move it. then my eyebrow itches....... could be residuals from my meth days. they have put my on severals meds including clonipin. i prefer the pot. it has the least side effects and provides the most reliable relief for me. :peace:

Im in the club. I have never been diagnosed with anything but i just cant sleep. I can only sleep when im tired. So if im not tired its not happening. I've layed in bed trying my hardest to fall asleep for like 6 hrs and still i have to get up. I stay up 2 days straight about once a week sometimes 2. I do get tired but who wants to go to sleep in the middle of the day and wake up in the middle of the night. So u sually i just stay awake until 9 or 10 pm and sleep until 7am.

Happens to me all the time too - all the years of skateboarding and snowboarding catching up to me. I have Scoliosis that causes muscle spasms in my back constantly. The doctors give me all kinds of muscle relaxers and pain killers but I still just prefer the weed.

I have to take the pills sometimes though :sleep:

That doesnt work for me Token. I used to have to listen to the radio to fall asleep but that doesnt even work anymore. Then it was the fan. I couldnt sleep without it even when it was winter. that dont help anymore. I just had some little bastards crank calling me starting at 2:00 am. They called like 20 times. Pisses me off. I guess i have a reason to stay up tonight.I just got a hps and i didnt have enough time to see how hot it was before 12/12. So now i can check it when it comes on.

it affects my work. if i don't medicate i too will go sleepless for days. i get so tired my mind starts spinning and i just can't relax. this has been going on for over 10 years. i've tried it all. exercise, diet, pills, herbs,...... i can usually fall asleep after reading in bed. i lay down with a book and read until i drop the book. most nights i get in a chapter or 2. sometimes i read a book in 2 days. i can usually tell after 10 mins if i'm gonna sleep or not. until then i never know. i will fall half asleep on the couch but by the time i get to bed i'm wide awake. once i do fall asleep i get one shot. once i wake that's it. there's no going back to sleep for me. i just can't do it. it all sucks. i love sleeping.

I love sleeping too. Once i get to sleep i can go a good 12hrs. Im jobless right now but usually if im working im so tired when i get home i can sleep. Hell it might even be stress from not being able to find a job around here. You know the economy sucks when you cant even get a job at mcdonalds. I would move right the fuck out of here but my girlfriend dont want to leave college or her parents.

Heh - staying up late tonight on purpose, don't want to miss the eclipse.

Gonna take some photos of it - the sky is super clear it should look good.

Hey Fdd - when I got my medical card they said eating THC is better for twitchyness and sleeplessness - ever tried baking up a really potent cake and eating it and hour or 2 before bedtime?

I do it every once in a while but I usually just wake up so high it makes me more tired than if I just didn't sleep.

eating it is by far is the best for my condition. except i can't walk in the morning. that stuff really messes me up. like pot acid.:mrgreen:

my girlfriend told me things i said. it seems as if in my dreams im paranoid telling people to shut the fuck up or something mean and agressive. lol when she tells me i just laugh. weed doesnt help me sleeping cuz im buzzing and i cant stop thinknig of trippy things and my mind keeps going. i use seroquel for my homocidal thoughts and sleeplessness. i also use prozacs for my manic depressive side. oh god. ritalin destroyed my mind when i was a child. i bet its still in my system.:evil:
