Insomnia by oot2004-12-06 11:25:02
  Routinely getting up early? by Arcanum2004-12-06 11:29:39
    Thanks by oot2004-12-06 11:31:46
      How long has this been going on? by retiqlum22004-12-06 11:41:07
        Most of the semester by oot2004-12-06 12:29:19
          OK, one more question: by retiqlum22004-12-06 12:50:39
            Not necessarily by oot2004-12-06 13:32:42
              One last question: by retiqlum22004-12-06 13:42:52
                Decent by oot2004-12-06 13:47:00
                  Because I'd give 6:1 odds... by retiqlum2 2004-12-06 13:59:01
...that you are suffering from stress-induced temporary insomnia.

If I remember correctly ( and I may not - sleeping disorders have left me with swiss cheese to think with):

1) You are curently at odds with your parents
2) You have a secret that you are afraid to tell.
3) That secret makes holidays tough.
4) You want to move.
5) You didn't do as well as you hoped at midterms.
6) You have finals coming up.

Relax. Not just because of what I said, but because not relaxing is causing your problems.

Remember: I am not a doctor.

For temporary insomnia, sleeping pills are fine - in moderation. You do not want to become dependant on them. Skip the melatonin - that is to get you back on a day/night schedule. Go to CVS and pick up some regular sleeping pills. Brand doesn't matter. In fact they don't even need to say 'sleeping pill' on them: it's made from the same chemical and dosage as generic allergy medicine. Buy whatever is cheapest.

More importantly: no caffiene after 5:00PM; no food after 9:00PM except water; try to stick to an absolute schedule for waking, sleeping and eating.

Most importantly: relax.

It should pass.

Good luck.
