Have you done any kind of exercising? That usually helps....
What the does everyone do to get rid of it? I've had it BAD for nearly a month now. I've tried melatonin and I really don't want to try prescription sleep aids, so what else is there?

Find out why you can't sleep and then fix it. If it's anxiety or depression then fix that. If it's spurstalkitis, then sell your computer.
If you are a night person, then work at night and sleep in the morning. That seems to work for some as well.
lol @ spurstalkitis. It isn't that. I'd rather sleep than read this board.
I know it isn't a lack of excercise because I am phsyically tired much of the time, but I just can't sleep. I'm going to check out Sequ's site though.
When do you sleep? Do you sleep at all and if you do how many hours a day?
Normally or recently? Recently, it has been extremely erratic. I may sleep normally one night, then stay up for almost 48 straight hours and sleep for a portion of the day when I do finally get to sleep. It just varies at the moment. I've never been a sleeper who sleeps very well, but it has been noticably worse lately.
I think it might be related to being jobless. This started around the time I quit my job, but I don't have much anxiety because I'm making more money now than I was before. But I do get quite stir crazy and bored without the work.
Anal people always have a hard time sleeping,
Damn Manny. Maybe if you spent as much time filling out job applications as you do creating new topics you'd hijack fewer threads.

sleep. and get rid of the demons.
jobless? and making more money?
Where do I sign up?
48 on, 24 off? Sounds like a perfect job fit to be a fireman.
Otherwise...
Take a few minutes and develop a plan for yourself. A plan that includes some form of exercise that you specify (no generalities allowed), reading up on adding value to your marketability on the job market, improving your resume, read up on companies you would like to work for (most business websites have a "financial" or "investor" section to click on that offers an annual report. Look at the CEO's vision or mission statement to the investors or some of the new markets that company plans to enter in the coming months or years. You can use that knowledge to empower you in setting up your next interview, or to improve your chances during your interview.
These positive steps should also give you peace of mind, and might help you sleep when you need it.
No kidding, where is the website for this home based business.jobless? and making more money?

Ive had insomnia pretty much my whole life. This semester its been terrible, I recently went for about 4 days straight without sleep. It's mostly due to stress/anxiety I think. I would not reccomend taking sleeping pills. I hear that they are highly addictive and are just not good for your health. I tried them a couple of times as a kid, and they either didn't work or made me terribly tired. The thing that did help this semester was, and I am not the only one whom this works for ,but it is not for everyone. I reccomend to maybe take up a hobby. I think that it is easier to sleep if you feel satisfied with your day.
Ambien
.. On a serious note. Try to exercise more should help you pass out.
Man, I really don't want to go the ambien route. Jess would steal my whole prescription.(she has lifelong insomnia)
I may have to do that though.
Manny, get a job, get laid, and get some tylenol pm.
reading puts your ass to sleep as well...you know that.
now you got the answers you need.
now get yo ass to bed at a reasonable hour.
early bird gets the worm nikka.
(although, i'm gonna need to start taking my own advice, i need a job and some tylenol pm in the worst way...)
I recommend alot of sex and then 1 shot of the good stuff.
Try putting in a good hard day's work once in awhile.
I never have any trouble sleeping after working hard all day.
When the girlfriend isn't around....this works for me...

No . The only thing I can think of is that he's become a burglar. Which would work well with the insomnia.
Add me to the list of those recommending exercise, if you aren't getting some. Even if you feel tired.
The fact that you might have loss some structured hours to your life when you quit your job might have played a role.
Sequ is the man when it comes to sleep disorders, though.
OTC Tylenol PM...works like charm. Plus it helps get rid of any headaches/pains you may also have.![]()
