[00.41.18] <@solios> ugh
[00.41.29] <@solios> I need to see a doctor about the blood sugar whatever.
[00.41.30] <@solios> >:|
[00.42.28] <@solios> It's weird.
[00.42.31] <@solios> I'm fine during the day.
[00.42.49] <@solios> Then somewhere between seven and now, I get an angry hole in my head above the eyes.
[00.42.55] <@solios> It's not a headache.
[00.44.42] <@xeno_druxx0r> yup
[00.44.50] <@xeno_druxx0r> that's the shutdown alarm
[00.45.02] <@xeno_druxx0r> it's your brain going HEY DUMBASS, HUMANS SLEEP AT NIGHT
[00.45.26] <@xeno_druxx0r> I placate it with plentiful offerings of beer.
[00.45.27] <@solios> No.
[00.45.34] <@solios> That's not it at all.
[00.45.42] <@solios> Because I'm not tired during that point.
[00.45.44] <@solios> AT ALL.
[00.45.49] <@xeno_druxx0r> see?
[00.45.54] <@solios> I'm both >:| and @_@ and can't think very well.
[00.45.58] <@solios> yes.
[00.46.02] <@xeno_druxx0r> I didn't say you're tired, I said you're Tired
[00.46.06] <@xeno_druxx0r> big difference
[00.46.19] <@xeno_druxx0r> it's called Stark Raving Awake
[00.46.51] <@xeno_druxx0r> and since you have no reason, other than health, to maintain a "normal" sleep schedule, none of the remedies that worked for me will work for you
[00.47.02] <@xeno_druxx0r> I'mma tell you them anyway though, 'cause I'm bored
[00.47.21] <@xeno_druxx0r> 1. avoid caffeine. At all costs if possible, but especially 6 hours before you intend to sleep
[00.47.35] <@xeno_druxx0r> 2. have a "bedtime" and try to stick to it. this will reset your circadian clock
[00.48.03] <@xeno_druxx0r> 3. lavendar. LAVENDAR OMFG LAVENDAR LAVENDAR LAVENDAR. I got some of that faggy shit and spritzed my pillow and chest with it and I was OUT.
[00.48.25] <@xeno_druxx0r> 4. Valerian root about 30 mintues before prescribed "bedtime"
[00.48.28] <@xeno_druxx0r> 5. I said root.
[00.48.43] <@xeno_druxx0r> 6. no nicotine within the hour before bed. sucks, I know, but it will work
[00.48.53] <@xeno_druxx0r> As the resident insomnia expert, I Know Things. :)
