Finally got to see Metallica at the Sonisphere festival last weekend. I'm still recovering from the overdose of awesomeness 😀
For me, it's a toss up between gleaning information by just touching a book/ computer etc or walking through walls/ dropping through floors/ allowing objects to pass through me. Ton of fun 🙂

I was looking forward to seeing an intelligent action film and instead, I got a complete mess. I was really disappointed.

That gives me a lot of hope. Thank you 🙂
I've always blamed my insomnia and my reluctant solitude for my blue spells but I've never linked the two of them together.
For me, a lack of input/stimulus in the day almost always bums me out but I've never felt my insomnia was caused by depression. It's always felt exclusively the other way around.
Inception. Only positive thing about seeing that movie is I paid half price for my ticket.
'Nara42' wrote on '19:I have found I have a similar problem. When I sleep poorly I wake up queasy. Usually just wait it out. I had not thought about them being connected before though.
I had this during the first year of my Insomnia and got a bit worried it was morning sickness 😮
I found peppermint tea helped a lot in the mornings. I started drinking it at night too as it was suggested to me as a sleep aid. It didn't solve my sleeplessness but my evening cuppa did help with the morning queasiness. After a while, the queasy feeling disappeared of it's own accord.
Ginger tea is supposed to be good for poorly tums but I've not tried this. I find Apple Cider Vinegar diluted with water helps me. I find it a really good pick-me-up too 🙂

Slaughterhouse was an incredible read. Horrorfying, deeply emotional in a throw-away style. It's officialy one of my favourites now. Hitchhiker's Guide is just brilliant on so many levels. I never got to see the original series but the film didn't doesn't do it justice at all.
'Martin' wrote on '03:I can't decide whether to read To Kill a Mockingbird or The Great Gatsby first (never read either). Any suggestions?!
The Great Gatsby! Of all the books on my school curriculum (some 15 years ago), it was the only one I couldn't get enough of 🙂
'Martin' wrote on '11:I see Black Swan is available on Amazon On Demand. Worth watching?
Not for me. Wasn't won over Natalie Portman's character so I wasn't invested enough to care about her situation or what happened to her. Vincent Cassel was good despite his character being pretty stereotypical and two dimensional.
The rest was just shock tactics and feathers. The ballet was cool though.

Yep! Did this three times in five minutes the other day. My laptop switched itself off halfway through an email before I realised I'd been attempting to go grab my power adapter 😀
'Martin' wrote on '30:I wouldn't want to impede or influence the artistic process – anything related to insomnia would be fun; and you're right, the more that join in, the merrier!
I'm not a doodler but I'm sure I can drum up a few Insomnia-themed punchlines 🙂
'UliHarp' wrote on '22:And if those don't help, sometimes I just talk it out with a friend who knows the characters or take a shower (when standing under the shower, I let my mind wander and ideas sometimes appear in my simmering).
Snap! 🙂
Although I find I HAVE to make sure my scalp gets wet. Doesn't work if I wear a shower cap. Weird 😮
Wow.
I've been offline and away from the forum trying to deal with a lot of personal problems, but I had to come online today to show my support.

Part of your life is STILL there. She's not gone, she's healing and she's going to need you more than ever when she comes round. You have to keep reminding yourself of this. Constantly if it comes to that.
'IvanAleisterMesniaa' wrote on '13:I don't know what to do besides wait and hope. Just like she would.
Take strength from your love for her and use that to stay strong and focussed. Like you said, you know she would do the same for you. Keep reminding yourself this is a temporary struggle and it WILL pass.
