Not sure whether I am too scared to sleep (no idea why) or just can't actually sleep.

I haven't slept since New Years Eve, and that was only because I drunk myself to unconsiousness.

Thats five days with no real sleep, can anyone help? Doctor says take drugs, but sadly I can't take them because of the anti-inflamitaries I am on for my chest and other drugs which keep me here.

God this sucks, my body feels emotional drained, but physically I am completey normal. I wonder if I am still buzzing from New Years Eve.

I wouldn't pray insomnia on anyone, anyway.. I am off to lie down now, oh.. heh... Whose Line Is It Anyway was really good. heh.. thats a bonus.

Anyone?

From a really sad and er-noyed.
er-no

I got college at 9am.

My sleeping pattern in the holidays has been 5AM-2PM.

I tried bringin my body clock back to normal last night, but i just lay in bed from about 3am till about half 5. Just coudnt get back into the routine. I just lay awake, thinking about all the mistakes i have made in the last year. All the crap that just keeps going around and aroound in my head.

It only gets to me at night, i dont think about it at day. As soon as i lay down..my mind tells me i am an idiot. And i am basically. ITs all to do with College mostly. I got 5 exams in two weeks, and i got a Computing coursework (i should have started 2 months ago)to do. Oh yeh...and UCAS application...which should have been done months ago...deadline is next tuesday i think. I always leave crap till the last minute...really bad habit.

I know some people have much worse problems...but mine is this...

I'm having trouble getting to sleep. I've changed my sleeping pattern from going to sleep at 11pm and waking up at 8am. Now I go to bed at 3am and wake up at 12pm (by my dad) now if I don't wake up tomorrow I'm goingto miss half of school. Now I think about it, that isn't really that bad.
