    What are you drinking?

    I'm astonished.

    I can actually manage to fall asleep standing up when I'm in rag order. Literally.

    I fall asleep after a heavy night quite easy but I find like yourself that I don't sleep long. I usually wake up again after a couple of hours suffering from dehydration or sometimes severe heart burn.

    I find drink actually helps me sleep (and I'm not a great sleeper), the following night can be a bit dodgy though the night drinking is usually grand. :P :pac:

    The body must get seriously confused when it comes to sleep if you're drinking that mixture!

    Nah, your drinking doesn't affect my sleeping.

    I'm the same. I actually find that I nearly wake up easier after a night out than if I go to bed early the night before. Of course, by the evening I'm absolutely shattered and have to go for a nap to make up for it all.

    I can never sleep until I sober up after a night's drinking. Good job I hardly ever drink. Or sleep.

    Drink more!

    God, some people.:rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,966 ✭✭✭✭syklops


    Yeah its mad isnt I only had loike 5 vodkas, topped up with loike 5 or 6 red bulls, with a couple of brandys to top the night off, and I can't sleep after. Sometimes instead of Brandy I have black russians, thats coke, coffee liquer and vodka, somtimes with more coffee on top for more kick. Then I try to sleep and im awake for hours. Whats with that?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,073 ✭✭✭Pottler


    You know what to do so, stop sleeping. It cuts down on your drinking time too much anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭Plazaman


    Well what's happening is, depending on what you drink, your neurochemicals, which include neurotransmitters and other molecules that influence neuron function are affecting the organic compounds in your nervous system and neural processes such as cortical plasticity, neurogenesis and neural differentiation are affecting you sleep pattern.

    Only joking Bud, I Wiki'ed that as I'm well steamed now. Stick to Sprite or Sprite Light.

    Man, after a night on the lash, sleeping is the least of my worries.

    Although I did hear that you don't get the full benefit of say, an 8hr sleep after boozing...

    Not really a big drinker, only do it every now and then, but have found since I started drinking that I just wont sleep, just lie in bed thinking, then get up about 9 to get a drink of water and just stay up

    For some reason I always wake up with my left nostril blocked after a night on the beer. And its like clear jelly when I blow it out! Anyone relate to this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    Nope I pass out asleep after drinking to the point where I've drank before during bouts of insomnia to fall asleep
