do you sleep Frankster? haha!
peace brother..
Not very well unfortunately. That's the main problem for me actually, sleep. Woke up today, and felt like someone hit me with a baseball bat. Crawled into the shower, although I certainly didn't want too, letting some hot water run on this aching body, on my aching head, and in my perpetually ringing ears.. Had an MRI done last month, at least I don't have brain cancer. Takes hours for me to be able to move around during the day, and get my footing, but once I do, it's a whole lot better, once the meds kick in. They say the migranes might be from lack of REM sleep deprivation, and I only sleep for an hour or so tops before waking again, never getting into any deep sleep. I get up at least a half dozen different times nightly just to piss. (or not). Dribble, dribble, the body doesn't work like it used too anymore.
I've even purchased a very expensive oxygen machine to try and help, thinking I wasn't breathing right, but no dice. I did sleep a little better using it, but not much. When I go without sleep for day/weeks on end, I get psychotic, hallucinations, and just plain mean/moody, mentally unstable. It's a real problem for me, actually. You nailed it right on the head. I don't sleep normally anymore,
whatsoever.
Worst one was being up 9 days straight one time, but that was many years ago. Hope to God that never happens again. I was strung out back then, but even now, I can go 2-3 days without really getting much sleep at all. It's a
real problem. I'll try and exhaust myself at times, so I can sleep better, hiking up those hillsides really helps in that regard, I need to do it more.
