I feel for ya, man. You are not getting real sleep. Find a sleep clinic, no matter how many days it takes you. Restless legs? Sleep apnea? Five other probs? I don't know. But you need someone who does. And a diagnosis. My problem was apnea. I lost the best job I've ever had, I could hardly walk, I was depressed, and I was passing out all the time. When I got my treatment machine I found out what I'd been missing; four hours on that machine ( I always needed to sleep nine) was better than ten hours without. I'm sure it saved my life. Good luck! @Sebastian! I feel for ya, man. You are not getting real sleep. Find a sleep clinic, no matter how many days it takes you. Restless legs? Sleep apnea? Five other probs? I don’t know.

It's been almost 4 weeks now. I've tried emailing and calling their support and haven't gotten anyone on the other end. Is this a real company???? (Buyer beware...) All:

I've actually tried numerous things like raising my BP before sleeping to avoid headaches, it worked for a while but i tend to oversleep and i still get headaches. I'm extremely tired at the end of a day and usually wake up after all my lessons have finished lol. If i could get some really good tips and hacks to allow me to have a good sleep while waking up early in the morning, then that would be fantastic. Cheers Tim, love what your doing with the book, Best book i've ever read Saab Hey Tim

I'm a very hyperactive person by nature (lots of nervous energy daily). I found that if don't have an intense workout session very often, then I can't fall asleep. I perform an intensive workout session I can sleep fine for the next 2 days - taking my normal 1-2 hour "time to sleep" down to 5 mins easily. This is how I ended up becoming a powerflifter actually.
