That's what I do, minus the hot shower and sandwich.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

ever gotten to that point where your half asleep and half awake and start seeing things - it drives me nuts cause i think ive had conversations w ppl that never happen

No, but I had such a bad period of insomnia where I halucinated regularily while awake. Mainly auditory, but at night the visual ones were pretty bad. I still hear "things" to this day if I get a period where I can't sleep.

Trust me, it isn't fun.

Let's be realistic, those types do not exist!

In a world of 6 billion people, there has to be at least one out there! One can hope!

13 years of steady night shift, i have not slept at night in years i feel your pain. have tried every thing under the sun to sleep like a normal person from counting sheep to taking pills nothing works ill go some times 3 days without sleep and when i do sleep i might sleep for 2-3 hrs at a stretch and thats from 8 am to 10 or 11 am then i sleep from 2 to 5 pm every day before work i have just learned to live that way. good luck

Damn. Working straight nights would kill me. I have a hard time doing two or three in a row as it is. When I was having serious insomnia issues, I would be a mess after three nights with no sleep. Seeing things, hearing things, acting strangely, you name it. Probably doesn't help that I also suffer from BPD which only adds to the mess if I don't get good rest. Crazy people like me only get crazier when they are sleep deprived!
