need more sleep.

[ready2heal]

hey, i was just wondering... how many of you don't get enough sleep each night? i only got four hours last night becasue i have a cold and i just couldn't get to sleep. and every other night this week i've gotten about 6 hours just because of homework i needed to do. does anyone else have this problem?

Well, I don't really have that problem, because work is much more of a routine than school, but if I don't get enough sleep I know it literally drives me crazy. I mean, I suffer from sleep deprivation after like 3 days. And I can get aggitated and don't even think that I can stop picking at all.

Bleah. Sorry, hope you feel better, dear

im in the same boat as you. i just cant seem to sleep, especially when i am stressed out.

I definitely need more sleep, my son who is three rarely sleeps through the night. I get lucky every once in awhile, other than that I am being woke up because he wants something to drink or he has to go to the bathroom. I think it may just be a habit for him, and of course I hate to hear him cry so I give in to him way to easy! Now we have a puppy, she is getting better but she would also wake us up to go potty almost every night!

Also doesn't help that I am a light sleeper, so my sleep in so disrupted......

And I want another baby , am I crazy!!

I usually go to bed at 2 AM...no later than 3. So I get 3-4 hours a night. And its catching up to me because I have a cold...damn.

Yikes! Some of you guys don't sleep at all!!

I get about 6 hours a night, which is what I need to feel good. I can function on much less, I just prefer not to. As far as school goes, my policy is that if my homework isn't done by midnight, it isn't going to get done. I'm a senior now, and haven't pulled an all-nighter. I test better on an empty brain and a full night's sleep than on a tired, full brain.

As far as this being related to picking: if I'm really exhausted, I don't even process what I'm doing. Being overtired can sometimes lead to me making a bloody mess of myself.

I definately don't get enough sleep at all. I only get about 4 hours each night during the week. I always try to make up for it on the weekends, but then I'm just still really tired. I'm really exhausted this week! I should be in bed right now cuz I can barely keep my eyes open. I have noticed though that when I am extremely tired though, if I begin a picking session, it's harder for me to stop. It doesn't make sense b/c you'd think I'd be so tired that I 'd just quit, but I don't. Now that I think about it, I think that when I'm so exhausted, that's when I make a real mess of myself! And I'm always tired because of stress! Everything just seems to lead right back to stress, doesn't it!? Stress sucks!
