Guest David R James Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 It did this 3 or 4 times at uni, and never ever felt good by the end of it. But i did it on the days i had to hand stuff in. I got the terrible feeling of reverseness that i new i needed to stay up and finish shit, but i wanted to do the oposite, yet on a day when i had nothing to hand in or 'out i could easily just get stoned for 24 hours and not feel groggy at all.

Siegecow Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 naps never work for me, i just wake up feeling like absolute shit, groggy, tired, sick, disoriented. I'd just pound back some sort of caffinated drink and not sleep, around when the dawn breaks im not tired at all anymore and just buzz around on some ridiculous sort of giddy high until the afternoon comes when i'll crash hard, at which point its around time to go home.

essines Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 yeah after 3, maybe 4 am my writing was as good as it is when i'm drunk as shit. but if it's working for you then go for it., i don't sleep much but my brain can only take hard work for so many hours at a time.

Q27 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Whenever I wake up from a nap I feel different for a while. But whenever I fall asleep on a ride somewhere I should feel weird there, but me napping on the ride wherever repeatedly made the weird normal wherever I am going. But if I don't fall asleep then I feel weird. Yeah I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hahathhat Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 i got this here melatonin stuff two days ago, like sleep dep in a pill, reset my sleep schedule right quick that shit didn't work at all for me. how many mg u take? a single 3mg pill. apparently the effective dosage varies wildly, from 0.1mg-20mg. so, i took the recommended dose to start. an hour after i go to bed i get up to pee, shit's leaving trails like bright sun does when you're really fucking hung over, i had no coordination, and i felt... out of it. no booze no weed no nothing, just the melatonin. i woke up nice and early, without my alarm clock even, but i still felt the melatonin!! i felt borderline nauseous for most of the morning, in fact. what i felt like was in line with what some people on erowid reported when taking 12mg!! i didn't take any last night as i was drinking a bit and felt on a proper sleep schedule; ditto for tonight. in fact, that one dose seems to have nudged me to about where i wanted to be, even though it was massive fucking overkill. i'm irish/scottish/welch/etc, i don't tan i burn + get freckles, perhaps i have a natural melatonin deficiency, and 3mg was just a massive flood of it. next time i feel the need to tamper with my sleep cycle, i'm taking a half a pill (1.5mg). even that might nuke me.

Siegecow Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 i tried taking valerian root to help me get to sleep faster, like you hat it normally takes me an hour or more to fall asleep regularly. It didnt really help that, but goddamn it made my dreams super vivid and my sleep was much more rejuvenating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didnt really help that, but goddamn it made my dreams super vivid and my sleep was much more rejuvenating. reading up on wiki+erowid, it sounded like i was a prime candidate for melatonin. i tend to be unable to sleep until i reach a certain level of tired, then unable to get up (easily) until i'm well-rested. this translates into lying in bed, unable to sleep, until the sun comes up, then being all FUCK THIS ALARM CRAP a couple hours later. i blame society Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essines Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 my sister takes melatonin and it fucks her up. if she doesn't get 8 hours, at least, it's game over. it's a fucking drug. my mom too. shit don't do nothing for me though. or maybe it will, i haven't tried in in a while. i used to drink, like a drink or two, to make me groggy and tired but now i just drink until i'm unconcious and that's no good.
