Fear of sleeping

Ok this is driving me crazy Doc. I feel good all day and no problems at all, nothing has changed in my programs roids dose what not diet is also basically the same. I only added in a tad more carbs to try to get a big bigger. But I will go to bed and when i lay down instantly i get scared i will die in my sleep or and addition to feel i cant breath right. So I will get up and do something and i feel fine tired as hell but fine, lay down same shit. i will take sleeping pills be at the comp and be falling asleep and go lay down same shit. When I finally do fall asleep I wake up as if i was falling and jump up and same crap its back but only in mega strength. the only thing different is my codeine pills dont have Tylenol in them, but i dont think this would cause it. I do have a history of bipolar and paranoid schizophrenia in my blood line. My brother just came down with it as well, not bad but he said he was doing the same thing and then it got worse he ended up not sleeping for about 5 months and then had a major brake down and ended up in the mental ward a few times for doing really really stupid shit. I am also waiting for the baby to be born going to school at night and working during the day and lifting and training a few ppl. I might be over doing it but i cant stop as this all needs to be done. What do you think it is and what do you suggest I do and what I can do if i cant do what should be done because of things i got to do. <--- lol did that make sense?:). Also I have tried zanex and it works but still i wake up on it, and i have to get up the next day and this stuff seems to work best in the morning even though i took it at night.

i'd love to see the answer to this...mine doesnt go as deeply as yours but i consider myself to have "bed anxiety" more than actual insomnia...

i hate laying in bed thinking about everything (including the ever elusive "how does one fall asleep anyway?...fuck!)

so i always wait until i'm utterly exhausted and go to bed...which is usually 4am when i have to be at work at 9...it sucks..i feel ya

yeah

yeah guys it sucks bad, but i did fall asleep last night finally at 3 am not to bad considering, I have gt just about 0 sleep for a long time now. I did this i rode my bike for like 10 miles at 12 midnight, and a very fast pace, then took sleeping pills and then took a very hot bath and went to bed. only flopped around for like a few hours then i was out. I hope this works again tonight.

Man I have a remedy that is safer than all those xans, ambiens, tylenon pm's and all that shit. Its to bad its illegal and the gvt hasnt figured out a way to make money off of it. But I have had friends come off of xans and vals and it damn near killed them. I know you know what substance I am talking about. Besides the mild strain on the lungs I am a mild user of this chemical and I sleep like a baby. I used to have the hardest time sleeping until I started this. I wait till about an hour b4 bed and I am good to sleep the whole night. Why this is illegal I will never understand. I know most people cant or dont like to partake in this strategy but I would rather do this than rely on some pill that I have to ween off someday. I hope you get this figured out bro and wish you luck cause I have been there and it is no fun.

it should not be illegal..it's retarded...and it does work usually, yes
The other thing is when I moved to a new area I was "dry" for a few months and didnt have but maybe a few night where I was restless but I got over it. Didnt feel sick or withdrawals or nothing....Now I smoke when I NEED to not everyday as I dont have an addictive personality and I am to busy to be zoned out all the time...lol But ASK ANYONE who stopped ambien, xan, val, cold turkey and they will tell you that it is hell. You can have a seizure if you do that cold turkey and you wont sleep for a long time. I had a buddy have to go rehab for xans cause of this and they told him its the hardest drug to come off of. Which to me is weird since all it did to me was make me braindead and I passed out. I dont know man, maybe I am a bit of a hippie I guess but I will take my chances with a small amount of herb than being addicted to a benzo. I saw it first hand and it looked scary to me.

SORRY I GOT OFF TOPIC!!!! LOL :D And NO I am not a pothead and smoke all the time or everyday but sleep to me is essential to my busy schedule with school, work, and the gym.

I smoke #$%@ once in a while myself, I dont like it as i get very very paranoid, But i dont have anything against peepee i think weed and roids should be legal, but i also think there should be a test to take to see if your smart enough to smoke peepee or take roids.

LOL!!! And to conceive! :D That paranoid part I dont get but some do, so its just one of those things AK you have to find what works for you bro. I know its hard to turn our minds off at night. With all that is going on todays world and the stress we acquire it can be tough. Good luck bro, man I know how you feel and sometimes just "thinking" about sleep can stop you from sleeping, if that makes any sense. I wish I was like my GF who as soon as her head hits the pillow she doesnt move for 8 hours. Luck ass!! lol

Its illegal for the reason that it would make a fantastic altenative fuel....and the Rockefellars are not gonna have that. However for people with natural paranoia such as myself it is not a good thing for me.....LMAO

I used to use melatonan, I was told you build up immunity or the stuff stops working in you, but at the same time makes your body need an outside source for the stuff, so I gave it up.
