Sleep

[wiyeer]

I'm just curious - what are your sleep habits like?

I can never seem to get consistent, restful sleep. Since childhood, I've been struggling with something like insomnia. I now sleep once about every two days - I might sleep and hour one day and then 6-10 hours the next. On those days where I can't sleep, I'd just lay awake in my bed, frustrated that I can't sleep. Don't know why this is as I don't consume caffeine, take part in vigorous activity at night, and I don't smoke.

So I'd like to know how do normal people deal with sleep?

This is a simple one, as you rightly pointed. lol
You just need servicing. If you carry on like this, it could lead to mental health problems

I love sleep. but I hate to nap.
Im a light sleeper tho...I will wake up if I hear my neighbors' keys

anyways back to you
1. Dont take any sleeping pills.
2. You need to a sleeping ritual
3. Ever tried a sleep clinic??

Jaceel aa ku haayo. You're thinking about someone else and therefore your mind is lost in curiosity and bewilderment. Either settle the issue or forever stay awake.

loool I'm pretty apathetic when it comes to love. The most I feel towards people is a sisterly or motherly love. The only thing of this world that I love are good books, tea, and action flicks. You should have seen me in the theatres for Pacific Rim. I couldn't breath, the fight scenes were so amazing. I might have even shed a few tears of joy.

Pacific Rim was off the hook wasn't it. Would have been nice watching it with someone like you, passion for the movie

Yesss! I wish I knew someone with the same tastes in films. My friends are so girly, they don't care for action flicks or sci fi, so I went with my brother. And he found it boring. :/ The whole time I was struggling to breath normally and not cry. It worse with The Avengers - I didn't cry but I couldn't take the sheer beauty of the film that I had to pause several times just to refocus. My next films to watch inshaa Allah: World War Z and After Earth. Have you watched them? There's also going to be a sequel to The Avengers AND a new Avatar film (hate it or love it, it's constructed a really beautiful world). God has blessed up, mashaa Allah.

@ ms. naliaa
Sleeping ritual? That's a good suggestion, I could start one but I'm so unreliable. And as for a sleep clinic - I don't want others to witness my sleeping habits. Screw that. Just like how I made a vow to myself to never go to a gynaecologist if I can help it (I did research - fuck that), I promised myself that I would never subject anyone to that.

Being a light sleeper must be torture! How do you sleep, especially with your superhuman hearing ability?
Aren't naps the norm in Somalia? I don't know if it changed but my mother told me that it was normal for everyone to nap in the afternoon. Imagine the world going to sleep during the middle of the day, I would feel like the only survivor of an apocalypse. Actually... that sounds quite exciting. It'd be an adventure. haha You could just pretend to be scavenging for some necessary supplies to ensure your survival and build a shelter.

...

I'm 23 and talking like this. I think my issues go much deeper than just sleep. lol

Abowe, why would you suggest such a lewd, awful thing to an impressionable, young Muslim girl? I'm appalled and traumatized to be quite honest.

@CushiticReflections

ok bal xaal qaado waan kula kaftamayeye, I assumed you would find it humorous. I didn't mean to offend you.

Bwt, how old is this "young Muslim girl?".

@ Wiyeer and Cushtic

Don't waste your time with After Earth. That movie was meant to shine light on Will Smiths kid, horrible. World War Z you will like.
