Not-so-good-and-old "How do you feel" thread

"Who knows, what ever may lie
in deep waters
thousands of meters
under the waves

often i have thought
that i could be there
just in total peace
accompanied by fishes"

NF: Tired but not sleepy.
I went sleep 7 and half hours ago. I woke up 6 and half hours ago.
I have had sleeping problems and insomia few time before (lately) now but this just sucks

I have spent time wathing sms chat on TV and writing some lyrics.
I have also picked my eyebrows, it is kinda fun.
btw, Katatonia - Day is good.

Sleeping rules.

@RH: Sorry to hear that; insomnia really sucks. I have touble sleeping too. I'm not sure what is causing it for you, but try not to eat or exercize 1-2 hours before going to bed. Perhaps there could be too much environmental distraction as well (ie. light or sound). And of course, stress. I hope you can get the problem fixed, and yes, Day is a great song.

NF: Very...strange. I went to the doctor last week because I've been experiencing anemic-like conditions for a couple years already, but all the blood tests came out alright. However, my blood pressure was very high, so I had to go back yesterday to see if it still is. It's 162/110. Most likely stress is causing it. Now I've been put on medication to bring it down and will have to see a specialist.

@incendiare: so it might be that your stress conditions are causing or contributing to insomnia. i've been experiencing problems in the field for a while now, and there doesn't seem to be an easy way out to the kingdom of a good night's sleep. but since you're young you could end up adjusting to the situation and being able to go on as normal with very few hours of sleep every night, like i do. it's not the healthiest conditions possible, but it hasn't killed me yet, either.


nf: i'm trying to distract myself long enough not to feel anything much for a while. so sssshhh.

 

[Child of Time]

But Rahvin, don't you want us to distract you instead? Just relax, lean back and get distracted *rambling*

@rahve: i still fail to understand how being up at 8am could make a positive difference in anyone's life, but as long as something keeps you happy, i'll be happy too.

Word. When I get up at six am it always feels like my brain stayed in bed. And now at 10:45 am, it still feels like my brain is trying to escape, or at least tries to avoid thinking for me, while I try to stop it from leaving my body and head for Bahamas and instead force it to do some quite necessary thinking. In other words, I feel like this: :zombie:

*leans back*
there is a dramatic shortage of half-naked young ladies feeding me grapes and making my pillows more comfortable, but for now it'll do. let's see what's next.

 

[Child of Time]

There is a difference between "relax" and "feel like a decadent Roman emperor", you know. Do you expect half naked Nubians to cool you down using huge palm leafs too?

 

[rahvin]

not with the temperature around here. and i disagree: there is no difference between relaxing and feeling like a roman emperor, decadent or virtuous.
but if i have to do something to keep myself distracted, that would be asking you why you're using the swedish university net: student or employee? and in the latter case, how can i be one too?

 

[Child of Time]

The answer to that question is: neither student nor employee. I think it called "trainee" in English. Anyway it means: work eight hours a day and get one fifth of the usual wage. So I'm compensating my poor wage with doing some heavy-duty surfing at "paid" work time.

And if you dont' think there is any difference between relaxing and feeling like an Roman emperor, then I'm happy that I can relax a little easier than you.

 

[Naku ist krig]

@inc: thanks for your concern.. and try to keep you blood inside you veins

NF: Wondering how the next night goes.. i have slept for 2 hours today and i´m feeling

 

[Steve]

realharz: try taking benadryl (not sure what it's called in finland), it's a generic otc allergy medicine, you're supposed to take 2 but 3 works as a sleep aid (a doctor told me, works for others i know, although I can take 8 and not fall asleep for hours)

 

[Child of Time]

Steve, to me it seems like you always do a lot of stupid things (like taking eight pills when you're supposed to take two or max three). Am I wrong, and if I'm not, why?

nf: annoyed and kind of offended. fucking stupid idiot.

 

[Northern Lights]

NF: blah.

^ yes, indeed

other than that i feel alright i guess. a bit stressed maybe. and really sorry for my friend, he's not feeling too good. and really thankful, cause my (other) friend went through some trouble finding a paint program for me. i'm also amused by a few other friends :') funny people

tried reading? it´s a great help for relaxing and "emptying" your head, I´d say. and another thing I learned is wait to go to bed until you are really tired.

 

[Naku ist krig]

@delirious: no i havent tried reading
i just like to lie on a bed for several hours and get bored..

NF: last night.. over six hours am i just great..
fucking freezing here.

yea, good pieces of advice right there.

also remember not to drink coffee/tea etc before going to bed.

and don't spend time in bed on daytime, so your body gets used to the idea that bed is only for sleeping and you fall asleep when you go there.

if you lie in bed and don't fall asleep, get up and do something else for a while. then try again. it should help..

and don't spend the whole day indoors if possible. fresh air and some exercise makes you sleep better.

also avoid napping.

don't listen to loud fast music before bedtime, it can make you restless.

I do do some stupid things, but not really bad. A doctor told my mom that four for me would be fine, and that didn't work, then i took 5,6,7,8. maybe stupid, but benadryl isn't really chemically harmful.

 

[MagSec4]

RealHaz: We're baking a turkey this evening. Come over for some fine wine and a wonderful meal which will surely put you to sleep for a long time.

nf: annoyed and kind of offended. fucking stupid idiot.

Well, it seems to me like someone else is the one who should be offended : p
(I'm sorry and hope your matters get better soon)


Incendiare: Ah, I hope it isn't serious. Best of luck.

I am one of those fortunate people that don't get headaches

You bastard. : p


Kov: You ..other bastard. I want to go to the south west AND see the Grand canyon.

NF: GRRRRRRRRRRRR Stressed and ..sad, something. Dont know..

Well.. stop it! >(
: D

Am I the only person with nothing to do on New Years Eve?

..I didn't do. jack. shit.

Hyena (and anyone else feeling stupid lately): Someone just asked me a few minutes ago if the movie 'Gangs of New York' takes place in Boston.
