Why do I sleep so easy?

[Chigworthy]

I think I may be a borderline narcoleptic. Watching TV in anything near a comfortable position invariably results in me sleeping, regardless what time of day it is. I have to sit on an awful stool to watch anything lengthy with my wife. If I sit with her on the couch, I'm out. Movie theaters are a great place to see me battling snd cursing Somnus with all I have. I've always been able to read myself to sleep very quickly. I have windows open wide in all weather when I sleep. I'll fall to sleep in my boxers with no covers and wake up at four in the morning with frostbite. I listen to talk radio through the night. The dryer in our house is directly below the ladder to our bedroom, with no door in between, and doesn't bother me. When I'm involved in conversational or physical activity, I can stay up into the wee hours. Anyone else like this? Why is it?

Perhaps you have Earl's sleep apnea

[Chigworthy]

Sleep apnea is when your breathing stops during sleep.

[extracheese]

what Watson said.

Ask your wife to listen to you while you sleep for periods of 'no breathing', with an intermittent 'gasp' as you take in needed air. You may have SA and NEVER KNOW IT. You don't notice the stopping of breathing while your sleeping. Do a google search and read up.

Go to your Doctor and tell him of your issue. Any decent Doctor will recognize the Apnea possibility and send you for a sleep study.

if your overweight, your odds of having Sleep Apnea rises dramatically.

Ive been putting rohpynol in pretty much all your food...I'll stop if you want me too.

Its because you live in Northern California. The comfort of living in the best part of this state allows you to relax like no other.

[Sue_Bender]

This happens to me quite often.

Mostly when I drink...

which is quite often.

Where do you live, the Honeycomb Hideout?

[Devo37]

Why do I sleep so easy?

cuz you're drunk. :laugh:

[Chigworthy]

Where do you live, the Honeycomb Hideout?

Literally, it's a 3-story water tower attached to a tractor barn that I remodeled into a domicile.

is your hair nappy? :smile:

actually maybe your body produces a lot of melatonin?

Let's just say, based on appearances alone, I would have been just fine in Hitler's Germany.

wanna switch with me? i envy you man, you're just like my two buddies. either one of them can put their head to a pillow and be out in 10 seconds. it literally takes me several hours to fall asleep every night. if im in bed by 11pm i dont actually fall asleep until at least 1am. even if i take a sleep aid it will still take me a few hours to fall asleep. it sucks and i cant stand it.

I went through some serious insomnia bouts a while back. I tried the melatonin pills, all that shit. I was in a very anxious period of life, panic attacks and all that mess, and the only thing I found that worked was Kava tea, which I think is illegal now. My dad intorduced me to it, as he has constant ringing in one ear and has a hard time sleeping.

i tried mealtonin about 9 months ago and it did work to some extent. but guess what? for some reason it gave me horrible nightmares.....like wake up and freak out type shit. things ive never experienced outside of a night taking melatonin. after 3 straight nights of taking the pill and experiencing horrendous dreams i decided to stop taking it.

I'm gonna try it again and see if I get some nightmares out of it.

Stop listening to Howard.

[Chigworthy]

Well, I asked my wife about the apnea thing. She says she hears me stop breathing when I sleep. Great. I thought you had to be a fatty to have this shit. I guess I gotta go to doctor now. Fun.
