I find it really interesting that you write about your body seeing sleep as being akin to death – hence the reason why it is so determined to keep it at bay; like a survival mechanism. Your sense of frustration (but understanding of this) really comes through in the poem, too.
I like how you played with the punctuation as well 🙂

I like it. It's a really interesting piece and really explores the question of what triggers this big shift in our lives from innocence to 'battle-scarred'!
Thanks for sharing.

That's up to you – just something you think relevant to insomnia, or what insomniacs have to go through.
Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Ah! I take it you've not used Twitter.com before?
Maybe we need to start a private email directory for those of us who don't use twitter.

Glad to hear you're happy with your reduced medication regime (of course I can't endorse going against the advice of your doctor, though).
Do keep us updated with how you get on with the Sativex – hopefully it was worth the battle!

We hold them here on the website – we just put up a chat page.
How about we try to schedule something for the end of May, then? That gives us plenty of time to work out a specific day and time that works for everyone, and to get the word out.

Sounds like a great idea to me!

I hope your carpal tunnel gets better soon, Uly – I wanted to see if you'd draw an insomnia sketch or comic strip for us to promote on the blog.
Here's to your hospital stay being a short one, Yam.
Good times:
Knowing Yam is enjoying his Cheetos (I had to pull the ones from right at the back of the shelf to get the freshest packets)
The sun is shining in Oregon
I planted some jalapeno and anaheim chili plants. Can't wait for them to fruit!
Bad times:
Season 6 of Weeds not being on Netflix instant play. Annoying waiting for each Disc to arrive!
Having to deal with this pile of bills stacking up on my desk!

It's not down to me; it's down to our members.
This community will fail without the support and involvement of its members – so thank YOU!

I'd love to hold another one – the challenge is getting enough people to agree on a specific time, and to commit to turning up. We should get the ball rolling again, though.

It would be great if you could drop by the thread started by sleepy lies about CFS and offer her some support/advice:

feedback would be awesome!! 🙂

Wow, that was a long letter! Did you plan on it being so long when you started out?
I always admire people that actually take action rather than complain. Too many people grumble but don't do anything about it. You're trying to hold politics to account, and that is admirable.
Do you have any plans on writing to Nick Clegg? Didn't he 'sell out' supporters of his party more than Cameron did?

Good luck with keeping that title with Yam around – you'll have to arm wrestle to decide who is the biggest and best amateur film bug at Insomnia Land 😉

That's great news – all those letters paid off! What is the drug you're hoping to try? Did you discuss any solutions that don't involve medication?
