Still alive, but barely having a life

I just thought I’ll raise my floppy hands to let you know that I am still alive, though I am barely in the mood to share anything. You see, I’m having a really bad time trying to sleep at night, and struggling to stay awake in the day. While my doctor has given me some sleeping pills, they aren’t really helping.

One of my colleagues offered to punch me out to help me sleep at night. Thanks for the offer, but it won’t help if I sleep in the office, and I’ll have a terrible headache to go along with the sleep. Did I mention that it sounds painful? Anyway, I am grateful that somebody is concerned with a person as anti-social as me.

Anti-social? Pkchukiss is a hermit? To tell you the truth, I haven’t been switching on the ringtones on my mobile these few weeks, and it isn’t just my sleeping problem. I’m confused on my relationships with some of my friends now, so I’d rather not say much until I’ve sorted the mess that is typing on the keyboard, sitting between the monitor and chair.

  1. On some days I turn off my phone for half the day, just to get some peace. Don’t know if it would help you, but I do find that I feel less stressed :)

    Cheer up matey!

  2. I’m reading your blog backwards (as you may have noticed) so reading this:

    “While my doctor has given me some sleeping pills, they aren’t really helping.”

    is kind of funny. Now you know why they weren’t working!

    I wonder whether your sleep pattern problems are caused by the fact that you’re not getting as much exercise as you used to? (Although I seem to be quite capable of sleeping without exercise…)

    Also, you were (are?) doing shiftwork, weren’t you. That certainly can muck things up. Anyway, I hope you can find some way of sorting out the problem Sleep problems are hell.
