    Haven't had any good sleep for the past 4 nights 'cause of the bloody flu.

    Worst part of it is that you feel worse the longer you stay in bed....lying down just fills yer head full of snot.

    Been up early today....have watched the "Jeremy Kyle show" for the first time....there is no hope for humanity.......

    Couldn't sleep well at all. Kept waking up. That said, I went to bed earlier than usual.

    I remember doing nights as a student and there was a full moon. One of the staff nurses told me that there's higher incidences of incontinence among some people at full moon times due to gravitational pull. I never did figure out if there was any truth to that or they were just trying to wind up the gullible student :confused:

    Oh and I slept terribly last night. I'm a night owl given half a chance, didn't go to bed earlier than 1.30am for almost 10 days so last night I was wide awake for ages waiting for sleep to come, absolutely raging. Tonight will probably be worse

    I kept on waking all night, then daughter went hypoglycemic.


    *Wonder if it has anything to do with all the black birds dropping dead and the fish dying in Arkansas and the earthquake in England, somethings funny is going on, how many days left till 2012?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,380 ✭✭✭sitstill

    I didn't sleep well, but its nothing to do with any of that!

    It's because it's the first night since about December 22nd that I wasn't up to my eyeballs in drink.

    Horrible sleep last night. Wrecked already :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 834 ✭✭✭The Agogo


    Slept like I normaly do, which is normally very difficult for me so nothing new there.

    However have noticed that the lucidity of my dreams were on the increase! Very strange worlds full of bald woman and men with vaginas.

    Can't remember the last time I slept well...


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,952 ✭✭✭Lando Griffin


    As soon as I hit the pillow I went into a deep deep sleep until my alarm went this morning, fully refreshed and jumped up out of bed and showered singing "Singing in the Rain".
    Funnily my OH had a horrible sleep complaining of thundering snoring noises emulating from my good self.

    couldnt sleep either, weird


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    Maybe the dread of returning to work and kick-starting a grey January was the root of it.

    I actually slept well last night for a change. All though I did wake up at around 4-5 from a nightmare which I can't remeber.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 1daydreamer


    Could not stay asleep, woke at 1, 3, 4, gave up and got out of bed at 5. No idea why either, didnt drink last night, had gone to the gym earlier. Gravitational force hmmm okay just as good as any other reason.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    Bed at 1, up at 6. Got to sleep well after 2

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,397 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    I was pissed off my tits so I slept fine.


  • Registered Users Posts: 427 ✭✭MGMTea


    I dunno, I did and I did'nt. Had a ****ed up dream I was dying inside a Volcano and got a plane out of there and ended up in Sim City :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,740 ✭✭✭Asphyxia


    I got a whole three hours sleep but it was great :D I managed to wake up all fresh faced :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,808 ✭✭✭Chris P. Bacon


    I had a great nights sleep,went to bed at 1am and got up at 2pm id say I had about 10 hours straight sleep, I needed that though as im back in work tonight at 10pm and I wont see the bed again till 6am,plus I was sick all over Christmas and I didn't have many good night sleeps,but last night was a good one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 101 ✭✭Richard Noggin


    Even after a busy day ,I wasn't at all tired at 3am. Strange considering I usually doze off about half 12 or so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,166 ✭✭✭enda1


    Got almost 11 hours last night!

    Was shattered after the holidays though so if was a recovery sleep. Tonight I hope to repeat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,954 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    Was on Boards at 5.30 this morning, couldn't get to sleep at all. Not long out of bed now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    I slept terribly. I have laryngitis, and I just feel so sick. :(

    Its bull but its genuinly believed by a lot of people to have a great effect on you. they usually site how the moon affects the tides as an example, but the ocean is quite a bit larger than you so it doesnt have that much of an affect.

    Ive been doin this for the last 2 weeks....im goin to be fecked goin back to work tomorrow :o Serious amount of snoozin though,loved it!
    Could it be that most people would be returning to their usual routines of college and work?
    Me tomorrow, looking forward to it tbh but not the gettin up part. Fingers crossed ive a decent nights sleep tonight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,097 ✭✭✭✭zuroph


    that would seem to be a very high percentage of bad sleep last night then, something was definitely at fault here! how strange!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,674 ✭✭✭Mardy Bum


    I was wreaked today but I thought I had a good sleep. Obviously I didn't!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy

    Same as me,i'm actually stunned to see this thread.
    didn't fell asleep till around 5 or 6 this morning.

    keep having headaches,sneezing and all..., God, it was horrible.

    some people believe it has to do with the gravitational pull and eclipse event last night


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,171 ✭✭✭af_thefragile


    Last night was even worse.

    Went to bed at 5ish and kept waking up every 30mins or so...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,954 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    This is as weird as the birds dropping from the sky!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭face1990


    Slept like a baby, even though I was sleeping on a friends couch (partly due to my slight intoxication, I suspect).

    There's a lot of flus and colds going around at the moment which might account for the high percentage of bad sleeps.

    I had a **** sleep last night. I have the flu, nose is completely blocked, keep waking up every so often to get a drink as I'm in constant need of water. Then when I take a drink my nose begins to run..... :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭skyhighflyer


    This is so weird: I was up early for a round of golf yesterday morning, having been out late the evening before. When I got home from the golf and the big feed at the clubhouse afterwards, I was literally dozing off around 7pm, but stayed awake to watch a film.

    Went to bed at 11pm, eyelids drooping and sure I would be out like a light. Two hours later I was still in bed, tired but wide awake wondering what the hell was wrong :confused: And I didn't have work today so it wasn't that my schedule was turning back to normal. I also ended up sleeping till 2pm, which I never do.

    Very strange altogether.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,619 ✭✭✭ilovesleep


    I always sleep well unless if i'm unwell. except last night. kept waking every once in a while. wrecked today. going straight to bed now. good night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    It was the equivalent of a Sunday for a lot of people and who can sleep on a Sunday? After the weekend your heart will be pounding like crazy, known as the DT's.

    I actually did get a good night sleep surprisingly last night but usually I have major problems,
    here's some of Teddys Tips.
    There are some good stuff you can get to aid your sleep. Kalms can be bought without a prescription or you can try stilnoct with a prescription, but these will give you a bit of a hangover when you wake up.
    They can be hard to wake up from too if you take 10mg + and will probably sleep through your alarm.

    For a good sleep try get into a routine, do a few things in the same order every night. No TV or internet an hour before bed.
    Reading is a good way to tire you in the evenings before sleep, even in bed.

    Best of luck,
    Teddy.

    I had a terrible night's sleep last night. I barely slept at all. I've been exhausted all day. I'll sleep well tonight though. Unless I don't again.

    Nope, fell asleep at about 1am woke up at 6, back to sleep at 9 then slept til 2 and have been dying for a nap ever since.

    I have an excuse though, i have tonsilitis.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Slept great for the first time in ages actually.


  • Registered Users Posts: 196 ✭✭Meteoric


    Was just saying to someone in work anytime I have a week or two off I don't sleep well, imagining stuff that has happened while I was off work, it upset my sleep a couple of times over christmas. Last night however I slept like a baby, probably the first time in 6 years that I slept properly the night before going back to work, was weird but appreciated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,245 ✭✭✭psycho-hope


    was awake till bout 5am then woke up at 12 and been up ever since. My sleep pattern has been all over the place since the last bad snow we had
