Have you ever been too tired to go to sleep?

Hi, It can be happened to me sometimes. Especially when I was sick, I just can't sleep after taking my medicine. Not sure why and it is contradicted from my husband. When he falls sick, he really need to sleep more,then will recover soon. Sometimes, I just feel tired on my body,but then my brain still not tired and I just can't close my eyes.Sound weird,but it did happen in my life. I guess too tired will make me feel hard to sleep..

It happened to me several times. I was kind of really exhausted that it made my body too tired and felt like it'll going to collapse yet my brain remained active and restless. 0The worse part of it was that it is even more difficult dozing off after all possible means have been tried . I resorted to taking sleeping pill just to help me doze off.

When I'm overworked my body would tend to say "I need a sleep now" but my brain is still very awake, depriving me of that well-deserved sleep. I just hate this kind of feeling. Sleeping is really one of my all-time favorite pass time. So, I just wish I could enough this these days.

Yes, I have...If I get too tired, then I get anxious. It's making me hard to sleep. I need a few moment to deal with that feeling, by reading, browsing internet, or other thing.

Yes, I have experience this feeling a lot of times, and also another similar feeling - too hungry to eat. I did read a book about medicine. It said that the reason we can have this feeling is our nerves can become numb and accustomed to the repeated stimulation to protect us from body damage.

It happens to me many times, sometime when it happen i just get up and walk a couples of minutes, sometimes i just sit on the bed and read some books, of just try to do something relaxing.

sometimes I feel, too, especially if you're feeling bored doing nothing other than sleep and my head was dizzy but want to do another kegitan also feel lazy and tired

I have actually had that happen before so I do know what you are talking about. Right now I've had 5 hours sleep and I am exhausted from doing so much on 5 hours of sleep. All I want is to just go to sleep. Usually what happens in your case where you are so tired and then cant sleep...with me what happens is I will drive for a really long time and then when I try to go to bed I'm so tired I feel like I'm going to be sick if I dont fall asleep but I cant fall asleep because my legs will twitch and ache so bad. Its called restless legs syndrome. I used to have it all the time when I was a kid which is probably no wonder since in school you sit at a desk for approximately 5 1/2 hours each day.

I know what you mean! Sometimes I feel so, so tired, and feel so extremely frustrated because I am in bed and very tired, but I just cannot seem to go to sleep. Once you realise you're having problems sleeping, I think that makes the whole situation even worse, and you have even more problems! You just have to relax and hope for the best I suppose. Everyone can survive if they miss out on a night's sleep or two, it's only when it becomes a recurring thing that it really becomes a problem.

I have had that same problem. I get so tired sometimes sitting here in front of my monitor typing away that I feel the need to go lay down and go to sleep... when I finally log off and try to get some rest my mind is going a hundred miles per hour and I cannot sleep to save my life. This happens to me frequently. It always makes me tired and grumpy and just unsettled all the way around. Sleep deprivation is worse than a hang over!!

There have been a few times in my life when i should have gone to sleep when I didn't. You get to a certain point and you don't feel tired anymore. then before you know that moment of defeat comes. I can usually tell that i am getting too tired and need sleep when everything starts to become funny. I did this more when i was younger. i don't do it as often anymore.

yeah. like what is happening in my life now. my girlfriend is away from me right now. she is now staying in her aunt and this month her aunt works in a graveyard shift and daytime the next month leaving my girlfriend and her aunt's husband at home during night time. i dont want to sleep. i am always thinking of my girlfriend.

every day and hate it
