JohnM Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 A vote for BBC Sounds -drama category. If you can stay awake at 2 am listening to something like the full 90 mins of Poirot, you really have insomnia. Ive listened to the first 5 mins 10 times! “Bouncing on beds, I remember from childhood, is a great depression reliever.” ― Robert M.

silverback Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Am same and its got to be an habit at the moment,3am almost every morning and i have to get up as i cant get back to sleep,every day seemes to be blending into one,bowl a porridge and a brew along with a couple of hours a family guy and am off until 7. To be honest this whole scares me to death as its just an unknown for us without the medical knowledge, i can paint your car or strip your engine down no probs but my wife as to sort my medication out, I had 4 days last week were my head felt like it were in a bucket of scalding water and i were terrified as have a bad heart,stents,and get short a breath a lot, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It told the history about the broadcast, and the names behind the areas. I do listen to it because I care for the local fishermen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hallucinating Goose Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Can't sleep. Always been a pretty fussy sleeper, have to have my routine. Routine just slightly different tonight, put my head down about 30-40 later than usual and as a result I'm wide awake. When I am sleeping I am an incredibly deep sleeper, can sleep through just about anything. Just got to get to sleep first..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wake up and its light at all I just cant sleep again. Similarly if its remotely close to my alarm going off there's no chance of me sleeping.

Shadow Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 one of the few transferrable skills I have from my time in the Army is an ability to sleep almost anywhere and in almost any conditions. Other transferrable skills, maintaining an illusion of being busy and gainfully employed whilst doing next to nothing and sniffing out a brew at 200m. That's about it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
