Ken's Revilation
I think the human body achieves a form of "HIGH" after midnight+. Dont believe me? See if you may have experienced something similar to me.
-Things i have noticed when im tired.
1) i have the munchies wicked
2) My humor raises and I become thirsty more often
example -> i watch the Critic at 1 AM, and i laugh my ass off. But i watch another episode 10am and i may chuckle now and then, but it isnt as funny
-Also i think your left brain just shuts off for the night.
1) I can think up more imaginitive stuff
2) i can draw better then in the day *PC and Non-PC*
3) my spelling is terrible, yet my math is better.
4) Noticible loss in eye-hand coordination
--See what i mean? And it is totally legal!

I'm not sure on this but I heard it somewhere: Your brain releases drug like chemicals when your body is tired to try to get you to sleep, but when you don't sleep you get a sort of natural high from it.

That's what I've heard, too. Maybe I should obey the chemicals... or maybe not.

oregons boring and you know it :P

Very true. Here's more evidence... ancient cultures in both hemispheres used sleep deprivation as a method of inducing "prophetic" trances, the same way they would use drugs like peyote.

It reminds me of something I saw on TLC (or maybe Discovery...) about a guy who worked in radio who stayed up for a lengthy amount of time for some sort of telethon...
It took the help of a bunch of other people to keep him awake...but he made it somewhere around 8 days... He got to the point where he was halucinating rather badly... When he finally went to sleep...he was out for over 24 hours... And the doctors checked him over and said that there weren't any signs of permanent harm done by the little experiment... However...his family members say they noticed a subtle change in his personality... One time...just for a personal test (of what? endurance? or stupidity? lol) I stayed awake for just over 48 hours... After a certain point...you sort of gain a "second wind" and you stop feeling tired... But once that wears off you really crash... I was asleep for the next 15 hours or so...lol I never had any halucinations, though... One of these days when I've got enough time off I should try it again for longer...lol They say that lack of sleep will kill you faster than starvation... I wonder how long it takes to die from sleep deprivation... |

I once went 6.5 days without sleep because I just wasn't tired. (I get that way sometimes) But I was hearing things and paranoid...I could see weird things too but I was out of it (Ask Alathon! He was trying to talk to me)

You're correct that anxiety causes insomnia, but it would be more accurate to say that anxiety is one possible cause of insomnia... there are many types of insomnia, and each one has many possible causes.
Some insomniacs sleep for short periods of time every night, some have a hard time going to sleep, some wake up frequently, some go through phases where they can't sleep... it's really more of a "catch-all" term than a diagnosis. All of this I learned by way of a very helpful documentary, Stephen King's Insomnia. Which, incidentally, put me right to sleep. Ye gods. The only good thing to come out of the whole Dark Tower nonsense was Hearts in Atlantis. |
