lola asked:

I am fourteen years old and my sleeping pattern is really bad.
I used to have trouble sleeping as a kid, but I am better now.

Lately in the holidays, I go to bed at different times.
But this week, lets say I go to bed at 10pm or any other time. I will wake up at 5-5:30ish am and I can’t go back to sleep.

No matter what I do, I always go to the toilet in the middle of the night, I have tried everything to stop this, but its just who I am. I will be busting to go to the toilet at 5pm and then when I come back to bed to go to sleep. I can’t or it takes forever.

My dad gets up at 6am and I am a light sleeper and I can always hear the tv going off in the kitchen, which is right down the hall, next to my bedroom.

I just want to know, because when school comes back.
I have to wake up at 6:15am to catch the bus to school at 7:30am (it takes me forever to get ready lol)
Please, I don’t want to be waking up at five and not going back to sleep.
Its been happening everynight this week
um excuse me what the ****?

Humanity *****.

At first I thought knowledge was the cure. In a sense, it was, but in other ways it was a poison: Like a kid that learns his dog actually didn’t get sent to the farm for a holiday, I resent knowing why but not knowing how to do anything differently.

Sure, I could manipulate people, but I already do it anyways; I create metaphors for the issues people have confounding variables for which would distort their view of it in that charming, ever-human style.
A rare few insights slip through the net, but they’re often scant and always partial. Like consolatory pats on the back before eternal damnation.

Everyone wants to be right, everyone wants knowledge, but nobody can deal with the price you pay for it — myself included. I hope we all get what we desire, so we can rot alongside one another in blissful nihilism. Many times it isn’t even a true metaphor, my patterns are just so far removed yet similar in essence, I end up with connections most people don’t see unless explained or coaxed.

And then humanity kicks in, and despite all points leading to one conclusion, someone otherwise logical will say “no.”
“No, that isn’t how I want it to be.”
And I ask what evidence they have to suggest otherwise.
And they say,
“No, you’re wrong. I will spin in circles until I can sufficiently confuse myself into a sense on security. I will argue in cliche patterns and blatant, emotive fallacies, simply because they are marred with your red hands.”

Now I think, FINE.
Do what you like. I’m tired. I’m going to think about myself for 5 hours.
But then they’re gone, and I can’t rot by myself, because I need to wait for elder others to come before, as is tradition. Tradition is a connection so far removed it wears a guise of sentimentality and pomp while bloating in indulgence underneath.

And now I wonder, how do I become happy? I would be happy if everyone else were dead, or I was dead and nobody cared. But both of those are unavailable.

Heres hoping there is hope left; heres hoping I’m stupid and wrong, and there is no method to my madness.

ashmo asked:

I’m a freshman in college and **** it here, but since I’m 7 hours away from home, I can’t just leave on the weekends. I came here because I was accepted (bad high school transcript.. found out too late that I have ADD) and it’s not the right place for me. It’s an all-girls college and they seem to **** me even though I try really hard to get involved and be social and friendly. It doesn’t help that the number of girls living on campus is extremely small. There’s never anything to do, I rarely have anyone to talk to besides my boyfriend on the phone, and I just look forward to going home each holiday.

What are some little things I can do to feel less depressed? I tried joining a club. They don’t do anything and this college is clique-ier than my high school was so I’m constantly being outcasted. It doesn’t have to do with my school, I’m transferring next year anyway. What can I do on my own (btw I don’t have a car) to feel like myself again? My sleeping patterns are totally messed up and I’m losing motivation to do homework.

asked:

Okay, well I am okay at home, as we have 2 dogs which make me feel safer and also if I am sharing a room with another person (or tent in case of my duke of Edinburgh expeditions) I am fine. However, when I am away from home and am in a room on my own, I become really scared. My family have a holiday home in France (which is where I currently at) and I have my own room. I am so scared of sleeping. I am scared that everyone little noise is something big and scary ( I have become obsessed with Alien abduction recently). I put the air conditioning on,as it has a little light when it’s on and also the noise it makes – every time there is a noise, even if it is obviously not the air.con I just convince myself it is. However, for the last couple of nights this is not enough and I am worried about the environmental impacts of having the air.con on all night, This is starting to get to me, as I am losing sleep. I have a residential geography trip on monday for 4 nights and I am not sure if we have single rooms. I don’t want to get a night light as my family will tease me. What can I do?

anonymous1 asked:

I have had problem sleeping lately. I think it started from the holidays and having a lot of nights out on the town and not going to bed until 8 am and getting up at 5 pm. I want to reset my sleeping pattern to normal hours, falling asleep at 9 or 10pm and getting up at 5 am. How can I reset my pattern?
I do have an iPhone what are the apps?!

Isabella Smith asked:

Basically, I am making a dress as part of my GCSE project, and i have bought my own pattern although i have altered it slightly. As a result, i am finding it hard to follow the instructions and thus my teacher instructed me to line the pattern pieces onto the fold. However, i am not sure how to do it and i cannot ask her because it is the summer holidays and the prototype it must be completed before the new term begins.

Laurenn. asked:

So its the 6 week holiday, i go to bed almost every night at 3am-4am, but thats only because im not tired before as i always wake up past 3pm. Its ruining my holiday, and i havent been out a lot of times. My sleeping pattern is a mess right now. I usually go bed at 1am and wake up at 9am. But i cant get to sleep at 1am anymore, because im not tired. Any ideas on how to get it back to normal?

Vidhi asked:

On holiday, Jack has £500 spending money on the first day, £470 left on the second day, £440 left on the third day and so on. Assuming this pattern of money remaining forms an arithmetic sequence, how much will be left on day 14?

asked:

For years I put up with the arguments, even at a distance, with my mother and siblings. She would go back and forth and start trouble between all my brothers and sisters. I tried to break the pattern by telling my siblings what she is doing, that she is always on the outs with one of us, but they all want to stay in her favor. My father left many years ago, he tried to visit us, but being around her was almost impossible since she is always creating conflict. I know he had to leave since 1/2 way or part way never works with her. She continues to be abusive. We are all in our 40′s now, and I found out she has even been calling my friends or employers fishing for information as to whether they are on her side or mine? My employers??? That is nuts. I realize she has now gone behind my back and if she finds I had a disagreement with a girlfriend, she would call them to “take their side” and gain favor. When I tried to talk to her about it, she twists it all around and says she is getting a counselor to deal with me. I find this all very amusing since she is the abusive one. She is very manipulative with counselors and people, she knows all the buzz words to say to get them to see her side. I should have listened to the counselor that met with her in 1990 and told me that she is not the kind of parent that cares about a child. The best thing is to get away.
Anyway, as of the beginning of April, I have cut off all contact. I cannot do it anymore, the arguments, the mean words, and now I realize she has caused so much grief in my life. She seems to live for grief. She never remarried and is in her 70′s. I do not love her, and I never did.
I just need some tips on keeping her out of my life for good. As I have said 1/2 way does not work, she widdles her way back into your graces and then turns on you. I am fighting cancer now, and I am a lot better. I will make it. I don’t need her grief. She even is very cavalier about the cancer like “oh, it is nothing”
We have had periods where we don’t talk, 6-9 months even through special events and holidays. If you get weak and call out of the goodness of your heart, she is very accepting but abusive as if to say “I won, and you came back” If I don’t call, she sends a nice card for a holiday which is the “hook” to call. Once you call she is on her best behavior until you let your guard down, then all the cycle starts. It is almost a jealousy that I am doing well, and she wants to destroy it.If she finds I met somebody new, she will somehow get their number and try to wedge the relationship. If the relationship is very new, it frightens new people away.
