for me, me emergency drug i call it that because i only take it in need when i am awake again for 2 to 3 days is zyprexa also not a drug for insomnia but it makes you drowsy like hell you need to thake it 2 to 3 hours before you go to sleep and it works 24 hours so even the next day you feel num and if that fails there is the last resort not recommended but alcohol and a lot of it the say you don’t sleep good on alcohol but any kind of sleep is better than no sleep

[Davy]

thanks for the response daf i needed a pick me up here we can speak oure mind and people understand us there a days where i would kill for 4 hours and i my dream even farder 5 hours that means i can have a full time job again and no longer need to depend on poverty have a social life again do sports basically live again

[Davy]

i also go days without sleep if you want to talk you are not alone with this

[Davy]

what you describe seems to me a case of sleep apnea a typical symptom long sleep and not wake up well rested

[Davy]

the same here but I do not live in America and our pharmasutical rules are stricter I can no longer say which sleeping pills I have already tried does not work but now I take zyprexa is not really a sleeping pill but it blocks your dopamine in the brain you are going to feel numb and you think less and that sometimes works. I do not take this too constantly. I do not want to be a junkie  often it seems our last option

[Davy]

you are not alone, I have to give up a job that I really like to do by insomnia many here  will understand you I have been in the clinic twice because of exhaustion it’s all in your head they say you should just relax do not be nervous and sleep It is not that simple I can not really give you advice because I stumble with it myself but you are certainly not alone when it can be a comfort

[Davy]

yes daf i have episodes of three days with zero sleep my record was close to four days then you become almost suicidal fortunately this does not happen often  let’s say so once a month but to skip a day is no exceptions for the rest an average of 3 maximum 4 hours and  interrupted

[Davy]

a day without sleep I end up nervous and alert in a kind of euphoria I become nauseous on the second day and fever almost the third day, it is as if I have the flu a night without sleep has become almost a habit

dudes be happy here you get more sleep then you think

[Davy]

this is the reason why insomniacs feel alone everywhere  5 hours who we need to kill to get that

what some people call a bad night of sleep sounds like heaven for us

[Davy]

you are not alone every night is a battle will i sleep or not and with sleep I mean when I get 3 hours I am grateful it’s better than nothing the tried so many sleeping drugs on me nothing helps the only thing that worked was drinking myself to sleep I can not turn my mind off now the put me on a new drug zyprexa ist not normally prescribe for insomnia more for people with psychosis it blocks your dopamine it gives your mind some rest you gain weight with this you feel drowsy in the day but sometimes i get 5 hours of sleep with it i don’t take this every day only when i am awake again for a couple of days it’s me last resort  the recovery can be compared with people with a burn-out it can thake months our years

yes daf happy to read this a couple weeks ago i ask almost the same question,i go days without sleep also the nausea the chest pain headache, your eyes are on fire in the end fever i regularly go 2 to 3 days without sleep.insomnia is nothing to brag about it is pure torture

[Davy]

the lowest if i get a bullet and a gun i’ll shoot myself but that stage happens when you are awake for days on end again,losing your job,collapsing and been sent to the hospital,then poverty strikes extra stress losing friends that don’t know what you are going thru,it change me of how i am ,i became a different person how insomnia and somthing positive can even go together what a question martin insomnia is a living hell

[Davy]

yes i get fevers when i go days without sleep then i feel nausea and will not eat also but when the fever stops you fall asleep for a couple of hours i think it’s the body emergency system to sleep

[Davy]

i don’t have any solution i only want to say you are not alone

i also go days without sleep tried a lot of sleep drug nothing works

the only advice i give myself now and other is get mad at it

i did this also with me gad ( panic ) just kill me now come on do it

and guess what i am still alive you didn’t get me down

it’s like ok you didn’t kill me now it’s my turn i going to live my life

ok insomnia you can and do keep me awake for days on end

even in the darkest of day you want to control my life

guess what insomnia you invaded my life your not part of me one day i will destroy you
