A hammer might work but I rather just use the plain old trusty bat across the forehead. Reminds me of something I'll actually type here so here goes see if I can get to the funny part before having to shut up. WHen I lost my sis I was so wrought with anquish and still am but I had not gotten a tatoo in years and always in the younger days gotten them under shirt or pants level as not to be seen for when I had gotten older told me from a friend I am glad I heeded the warning. Rest his sould morphine od one week outta jail in a hotel bath found a week later. Anyway I went the same night sis passed and got my leg and whole back tattoed with a memorial for her. My bro asked why the hell so big mike I said I don't know maybe I wanted the pain to be physical wrether than emotional who knows I was so emo at that time. His reply was if you wanted to hurt physical you could have just came over to my house and asked I would have punched you in the face. LOL

Doing good...thanx for asking mike...and that was me that said it was a good idea to get out of bed when u cant sleep...after my divorce i could not sleep hardly at all...i learned a bunch about it as i actually went to a shrink who told me i was depressed...i am like...if i could just sleep, i would be fine!...not realizing i guess that the depression was casing me not to sleep...also told me about getting the house real cold to slow my metabolism...course anyone else in the house will be freezing too

Mike your doing great. Try a hot hot bath before bed, maybe try some natural herbs that make you sleepy. Melatonin, get some tea with valerian root. If all else fails a hammer on the head should do the trick.

hanging tough right now slowly but surely coming along. Hoping tonight is better than last night. I have not been to bed in honestly three days now just sleep off and on here and there. I was taking suggestion as someone said to stay out of bed when not sleepy as not to associate my bedroom with restless nights so I am not going to lay in bed until I feel I can sleep more than 10 minutes. U no? Thanks for asking, Mike
