and yeah its real insomnia. i cant sleep. for the past year and a half its been on average 3.5-4 hours a night. but the last few months its just gotten worse to 1.5-2 hours per night. crazyness

That is crazy, and I know how it feels to not get any sleep, it can be sooooo frustrating to the point where you go mad!!

I feel for ya Liz, hope that the melatonin helps.

IMO, I don't think she meant any offense by her comment.

Every week is pick on chicken week...

But, it's all in good fun..

I hate not sleeping... I agree with Dogbert, empty your mind, picture a blank piece of paper. If you can do it, you will be asleep. If not, you will be REALLY bored.

But James_D does have a point too. The ideal thing would be to start putting everything onto a regular schedule attuned to the day/night cycle. This also means avoiding eating too close to bedtime in order to give the melatonin the best chance of working. It's kinda hard to sleep when your gut is dumping a carbo-load into your bloodstream.

For the eating problems also.
Rythm is important.
i ended up on 1 meal a day, b4 bed.
i just couldn't eat/not hungry.
this lasted a few months.
i took a week off for hols, and had regular meals at my grandparents.

Beleive it or not, i'm back at least two meals a day if not 4!

I had a friend like that in college. He was only ever hungry around dinner time, and even then didn't eat enough. The skinny little guy worked around it, drinking weightlifter protein shakes for breakfast and lunch.

Routine is the key I take it?

[Technoid]

Yes

Yeah... if you are waiting until after you get home to eat dinner, i would suggest that you try to take a break during work to eat. i used to wait until 9pm to eat dinner (still do sometimes) and i found that a little bit after eating i would wake up again as food was being metabolized...
