I SHOULD be tired. I AM tired. I don't know. I just can't sleep. This whole week, every night, I've just been laying in bed, all night, hour after hour, staring in the dark, turning one side, turning the other. I was talking to a psychotherapist about this earlier today. He was trying to get me to think about WHY I'm not sleeping. Is something specific bothering me? Yes, I say, I'M NOT GETTING ANY SLEEP.

*sigh*.. maybe sex is the solution. (Fuck knows i've given up everything else that I like lately... i should get some kind of reward.)

oh. shit. you DO exercise. i was thinking of the whole endorphine kick rather than mere fatigue. if that doesn't work it seems that a) you might have a major case of anxiety, or b) you live in a train station.

i nap, on occasion, to make up for short or sleepless nights.

now i know that men are supposed to fall asleep after sex, but it the opposite often happens to me-- after the big relax, i get ideas, and then, it's up all night again.

(but it's not a tiresome or annoying insomnia, just good fun).

anyway... sounds like you have a real problem-- best wishes!
