It's 2 in the morning. This is about sleep disorders.

Yeah I'm still awake after all the things on tv started getting boring ~sigh~ so yeah, I have some really bad sleep problem-thing. I heard this is common with aspies, actually I was just talking to TWO of my friends who are also Aspies. Pretty much proved my point. I'm so much different in the middle of the night, I'd probably get super embarrassed about this post in the morning. So what about you guys, whether or not your in the same time zone, do you have problems like this?

Actually... I am not able to sleep now either.

I have trouble sleeping unless it's really dark and silent, or I am really sleepy.
It might have something to do with hypersensitivity.

Yep. One of the reasons I work the night shift. Sleeping during the day without blackout shades sucks, though.

4:15am... I know it's bad when I look in the mirror and wonder if I have pink eye lol

I have permanent raccoon-eye. I tell myself it gives my face more color.

5:00 AM
Yeah I'm with you buddy. I have to overdose on melatonin if I wanna sleep before 2 AM.
It's stress and super sensitivity that keeps me up at night, I become a different person at night too, it's like all the influences of the world just float away and I can finally be myself; but just like you said, I still have to control myself because sometimes I'll do and say things that I will be embarrassed of at daytime.

... Damn, it's lonely to be like us.

It's funny/sad, some of my siblings call me "Old Man" because I've become so used to be being quiet and patient that I seem "stable" to NT's, though I do meditate quite often.

Do you like staying up? Can you not help it? or both?

I'm a much calmer person late at night than early in the morning. Lately I've been staying up later because I'm on break, but I wonder what it's like to do it all the time...

I feel your pain man. Half the time when I try to sleep, even if I am absolutely exhausted, my brain will become flooded with thoughts. Strangely enough, I usually make decisions in ways to better myself (such as going to the gym etc.) when lying awake at night, but when I finally drift off and wake up, I'll just think "f@ck it" about all my plans to be a better person. My brain is a very fickle thing, it can't ever make its mind up. Mind you, all the drugs I've done probably don't help that in the slightest... I'd go to the doctors if I were you, you should be able to be something prescribed to send you off to the land of nod.
