Mental Aberrations

[Louis Lingg]

I have been awake (not with standing a few sitting in a chair "cat naps"}. This is not a condition that affects me very frequently.

When it does occur I often strip and verify the functionality of every fire arm in my home. At the same time I count every round and sometimes double check the feeding of all cartridges through the relevant magazines.

I'm fifty-seven years old. I've no enemies of which I'm aware of but even consuming Xanax i do not relax until dawn. When there is light I feel well.

Do any of you experience this feeling?

Occasionally, I can fel very tired and ready for sleep, until the vefry second my head hits the pillow. On these occasions, at that point, I am wide awake and unable to sleep for hours. Not exactly the same, but I think that I can feel a bit of your pain.

Never happened to me...
Out of curiosity, how many firearms do you own?

You don't give alot of specifics...

Are you in situations of high stress during the day?
Do you drink alot of caffeine?
Smoke?
Drugs, legal or not?

Before bed..are you sitting/laying in bed for several hours before you actually got to bed to sleep?
Inactivity is a major cause of sleep deprivation, adenosine is a by-product that muscles release after activity - this chemical is absorbed by your brain and works along side other chemicals your brain releases at night - and will dramatically help you fall asleep.

I suggest instead of trying to occupy your brain - occupy your body. Get on a treadmill, go outside for a 30 minute brisk walk etc. - try it - it WILL help you.

Now - the nude thing..that's something else, the feeling of danger and suspicion - is a sign of errant released adrenaline, which blocks all sleep receptors in your brain and without physical activity (that adrenaline prepares you for) - will cause anxiety and increase stress levels.
The first thing I would do is exresice vigoriously shortly before bed!

I'm not sure what to think about this thread.

NOW NOW NOW, I was going to say "ME TO" but that would really be more than you wanted to know. at least Donkey is young enough to be attractive ( at least to women.)

I am not a nudist but disgust at the human body is really odd to me.

If that's Donkey's actual pic I can attest that he's attractive not just to women

Don't freak out, Donkey...it's a compliment... even if yo mama is so ugly that when she cries the tears run down the back of her neck.

I'm not gay, but I can agree with you, The hman body is beautiful and if it is his actual picture, I think he knows it too (attested to by his Avatar caption.)

Yes, I'm afraid I'm rather vain.

Have you tried excercize? Maybe some form of routine or yoga could help you with your symptoms. At the very least, you might be able to modify your habits into some different form and experience more awareness of your actions.

Because happiness is a warm gun.
