MyLotter Friends, I don't know why I haven't slept for more than 24 hours

Hi katie: I think you should take care of yourself because this is just not healthy. Maybe you are working too much these days or maybe you have eaten something that is not good for you or there's the possibility that you are sick. Try to work with these home made recipes and if nothing work, go to the doctor. ALVARO

Lost in thoughts, eh? LOL! That was really bad.But i've had experiences too, not just a day being continuously awake-but two days - two days-which means 48 hours.Now i don't have insomnia and i wish to confess that or whatever you'd say there.Well,it was purposefully so.Yes,purposefully.I had all my niece and cousins filling the house and i never wanted them to sleep and i myself didn't wanna sleep either.It was one such occasion where we really got time to GOSSIP about things-why, only ladies and old woman gossip? No no! We too would.. We'd lots of fun that day upstairs in the terrace-our's is a beautiful house-atleast the beautiful terrace that we had-was ever beautiful those days :) WE played and played and played-it was four years back-when i was 16-sweet 16 :)Treasure hunt was what we play most of the time-we would have small rewards too.Small ones that always encouraged us :) And gossips about aunt's and uncles and don't wonder what had kids got to do with family matters!It was all about their fat stomachs-we never discuss family issues when given time to enjoy and tease! Those were 2 days we really enjoyed so and the most enjoyed days of my life were that -with my cousins-everlasting memories :)True one :) when our mom's scolded we always thought about their fat stomachs and nothing else and we even giggled when they yelled and that made them even more furious. I also have the habit of being awake when someone's going to be married the next day and i stay somewhere new as well.That takes a whole lot time to get accustomed to that place.Sure! I even lose sleep in my house when i had the problem of urine contingency two years back.Yes,i had it and hope you knew what it is!Then the days before festivals-also i don't easily sleep.To make it short-Shocks and surprises dont make me sleep :)Even when i have something very deep to be thought of,i dont sleep..There are cases and i never worried about it! Make your day go good! KAtie :)

when i get insomnia there is no trick for me. im not sure if some of the episodes are related to bipolar or a mix of meds or what but ive had it since i was a teen. ive tried baths, reading, exercising, meditating, everything and it just seems i gotta just wait it out till i fall over.. i think my record for being up straight was 40 hours straight with out even a nap and i went a month with only getting 2 hours of sleep every night lol..

Hello katie try to have a warm bath before sleep or make yourself tired a little before going to sleep. If you like milk that's one of the best remedy to make you fall asleep or watch on your couch tell everyone in the house not to wake you up when you fall asleep instead just turn off the television set when you are already asleep. I hope this will help a little... Have a tight sleep Tina.. Mobhomeir here 041512

I sleep very little, sometimes go days without any sleep. In fact I slept 3 hours yesterday (Saturday) woke up at 8:30pm ater being up since :/ I can't even remember what time I woke up on Friday, but as of this moment I have been awake since 8:30pm April 14, That's gmt. I have tried many things, reading, meditating, music, pills, bathing, just laying here with my eyes closed. My problem is I can't seem to turn my brain off. And Ive always thought that sleep is a waste Of time, i mean just think of all we could get done if we didn't have to sleep. I know that it is a necessity for ones health and well being. I do hope you get a good nights rest soon.

Well,I don't have insomnia,yet you will be surprised to know that I frequently have sleepless nights,changing sides on my bed.The reason,my family problems that seem not to have any solution.As a result,I often fall asleep while watching tv in the evening.As night approaches,I begin feeling that it's most likely going to be yet another sleepless night.So I get mentally prepared.Fortunately I have been a book lover since my childhood and have a home library of my own.So when all others in my family are enjoying a sound sleep,I am reading books that take me to a world where there is no tensions and worries.

Hello there, I have suffered the insomnia occasionally as well due to my early menopause. Some nights I just wide awake without having any sleepy feel. So I have done a lot of study toward this. My advice is reading a boring book; browsing the internet or do some Yoga to make you feel sleepy physically. If this doesn't help, you need to take some herbal sleeping pill to help you to sleep. Hope this helps.

Sometimes I feel the clutches of insomnia when I am stressed, other times it's when I am happy. I've not felt it in quite a long time, but it can be a symptom or really side effect of bipolar, which is a mental disorder that I have. I hope you can find some time to sleep and be able to do so peacefully, maybe relaxing music will help you.

A lot of people have insomnia, and this is something that your doctor might be able to help you with if you were to go and see them about it. I find that it helps to get yourself into a regular routine so that your body gets used to it. You should put away everything to do with technology at least an hour before you go to bed, as the waves from the signals can keep your brain active when you really want to be sleeping. Learning relaxation techniques might help as well, as just being relaxed might help you to be able to get to sleep.

wow i have never been awake that long... i am such a sleepy person that i easily fall asleep when my son was hospitalized and we need to take a look at him almost every hour, it was so hard as my eyes were literally closing and my husband was the one who really was awake the whole night while i, was allowed to sleep after 3 am as i cannot help it

It happened to me 2 days ago. I tried to sleep at 10 pm but I can't help myself to fall asleep. I stay awake all night long and the other day came I'd tried to close my eyes but I can't till the night.I just spent my time 24 hrs reading books, surfing the web and here in mylot. This is ridiculous experienced because when I don't have enough sleep in the night its an uneasy feeling for me. I hope it won't happened to me again.

You are living the lifestyle of my team... #TeamNoSleep ! I am #TeamNoSleep Bo$$Lady LaLa Leo... and I never sleep.. I only take catnaps... lol check us out on Facebook if you have one... https://www.facebook.com/TeamNoSleepTM or on Twitter @TeamNoSleepTM , @LaL3o !

As sufficient sleep is essential to keep ones mental and physical healthy state normal, you must take it seriously. When I get troubled frequently without proper sleep, I have tried "Yoga" and meditation with controlled diet taking. All these give good impacts to my troubled state.

Once, when I was 14 years old, we went on a school trip to the sea side and it lasted 4 days.. I did not sleep at all during the whole trip. We were young and were up all night partying every night. We were also drinking a lot of coffe and red bull to stay awake, haha :) But that has nothing to do with insomnia, the point was just to have a good time. And my advice for you to fall asleep easy is to drink something warm before going to bed because warmth relaxes the body ;)
