I'm addicted
 

I'm addicted to Vick's NyQuil. Haven't been able to sleep lately, so I've been hitting the bottle. Sure does the trick.

Wow, plenty of people having that problem. I remember a while back some other guy was addicted to NyQuil on here.

edit: here we go, it was Grey Wulf

I always stay up and work on stuff when I can't sleep. New webmail systems, upgrades to various sites, checking out those pics I took of your mom way-back-when...seriously though, if you're addicted, get help.

Otherwise switch to something a little more main-stream, like Scotch. A little night-cap never hurt anyone...hrm, where's the Oban...

Yeah I was having a shot of whiskey before sleeping. Then acouple. Then I got sick and it's been a few weeks of this. I feel shame. But it works like a charm. Take the cup-full and I'm out in 20 min.

Exercise

I've been fighting it for the past hour to see what happens. I'm starting to feel like I'm sinking in the chair (similar to when I took codiene laced IBprofen). Goodnight guys.

I just sit on the internet til the late hours of the night and then wake up feeling like shit in the morning from lack of sleep.

I have found that 3 or 4 beers during the 2 hours before bed helps the situation. It doesnt get you buzzy but sure help you fall a sleep.

Been there done that :) Freshman year of college.

I found that sex works great too!

Easy on that stuff you don't want to become dependant on it to sleep. Once in a great while I'll take a tyenol PM to help me to get sleepy, but that is mostly when I want to get to sleep before 10.

Re: I'm addicted
 

That's what I take for the same reason! Otherwise, I normally have no problem crashing before 11 p.m.

Re: I'm addicted
 

If I absolutely need to sleep and I can't do it, I'll whip out some work safety documents or something equally boring, that stuff will put you to sleep better then any medicine out there!

Get really drunk and pass out.

Re: I'm addicted
 

I woke up today and felt like a million bucks. I think that's why it's so addicting for me, because I know it'll make me feel good.

Re: I'm addicted
 

We sell a ton of that stuff at work. We used to keep it behind the counter in the pharmacy, and we would make the customers sign before they bought it. But now since the board has realized the pseudoephrine in nyquil cannot be extracted, it is out on the floor again and people buy it by cases haha. They will probably start making gallon sized containers soon. Sure knocks you out tho.

Re: I'm addicted
 

If I drink alcohol before bed, I have a noticably harder time falling asleep.

Re: I'm addicted
 

Same here to a point. Alcohol generally fires me up, but of course after enough I pass out. Once in a while, if I'm already tired, a few beers in me and I can't keep my eyes open.

Re: I'm addicted
 

I puke before I pass out or get drunk enough to become a bumbling idiot(er, more than my normal day-to-day amount).

Re: I'm addicted
 

Oh this is good. NyQuil takes you down but the "NiteTime" takes you sideways before down:) Never take a bunch at one time though. Someone hid my bottles...
