bad sleeping habits....

ok, so, I've developed this horrible habit of only sleeping every other night for 14 hours at a time. Is this a minor case of insomnia?

I'm sure this can't be healthy... but I have a hard time breaking it.... I'm just wondering what I can do to help me break this habit.

An alarm clock? avoiding certain foods near the end of the day?

And help would be much appreciated

Re: bad sleeping habits....

work out when you wake up and a few hours before sleeping. Cut down on shugar and cafeine.
It happens to me once in a while too.

Lucid-dream inducing herbs and plants, with Barbituates might help too

Re: bad sleeping habits....

It will pass Drip. Sometimes I get a little manic when I have something particularly interesting on my mind. Then I can be up for days. It happens less now that I am older.

I am lucky to get 6-7 hours a night during the week. One day each weekend I end up crashing for 11 or 12 hours to recharge.

Re: bad sleeping habits....

I bet a lack of sleep is pretty common here at Hypo. Maybe we're all a bunch of hyposomniacs.
