:freak:
would drinking lots of coffee and pulling an all nighter be an effective way to fix a sleep cycle?

Isn't that sort of like an obsessive-compulsive saying "At least I don't forget to check the stove"? :D

I used to be that way. I drank coffee non-stop all day and evening and then fell asleep.
Then somewhere in my 30's it stopped. I can't drink caffeine after 6:00pm if I have any hope of going to sleep at a normal hour.

So what's a normal hour for you. Hell I'm in my 40's now. I think I have switched to caffine pressure now instead of blood pressure :crazy: I have started getting the half-caff stuff to try and wean myself down some. Being dependant on caffine is a bitch if you don't get some. Awful terrible headaches :cry:

first, I live in California... it's only a little past midnight here.
But I've always been a night-owl, given the chance, and I've been unemployed awhile now. I often stay up 'til 4 or 6 or even 8am.
Oddly, no matter how much caffeine I drank, I never had a problem without it. Never once had a caffeine headache and even though I'd drink 8 cups a day at work, I often wouldn't bother to make a pot on the weekend and never craved it badly.

| 14. heh I just looked at your profile |

Yeah it's a little earlier in CA. Are ya from Santa Cruz? I have a few relatives that live in Santa Cruz. Matter of fact I'm the only one in my ENTIRE family that doesn't live in California anymore. However the bulk of my family lives in the southern part of the state, LA county on down and into San Deigo.

And met up with "Sweet, Sweet" Connie of "We're An American Band" by Grand Funk fame. :) That just topped all for me.

| 25. Getting berated as though you do it on purpose just to annoy people. |
|
Because after all, it's completely under my control.
I wish I could shut of my brain and find some peace. Sometimes I've been able to do that, but not at the moment.
