Insomnia anyone?
Comments (19)My problem is that I'm the world's lightest sleeper and have always been this way. I do not go into a sound deep sleep until 4:00 or 5:00 in the morning. When I was a baby I stayed awake all night and slept most the day. Of course it is all much worse with pre-menopausal symptoms. Since I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia I have read this is a common side effect (lack of deep sleep). When the stingy Insurance Company will allow I take Lunesta. I have to say my life is so greatly improved when I take that sleep aid I cannot begin to tell you. The best part is how much better my concentration and memory is with proper rest. The rest of the time (living without lunesta) I'm pretty much walking around in a mentally disabled daze. I have tried other sleep aids and do not like the ones that feel like drugs, hate Ambien and it's addictive but I do like lunesta because it feels more natural and I have no side effects. Plus, I wake up in the morning ready to go just like a regular person. My insurance company would approve addictive Ambien in a heartbeat but not Lunesta without making the doctor's office spend days on the paperwork...go figure!...See MoreMaybe you don't have insomnia
Comments (9)Actually a study was done to see how people sleep without the interruption of modern artificial lighting: In the 1990s, a sleep scientist named Thomas Wehr discovered that everyone sleeps biphasically when subjected to natural patterns of light and dark. In Wehr's well-known study, he subjected participants to 14 hours of darkness per night, and found that they gradually shifted to a routine of taking two hours to fall asleep, then sleeping in two four-hour phases separated by about an hour of wakefulnes - "a pattern that exactly matched Ekirch's historical findings. As I have gotten older I also tend to wake a few hours after I fall asleep. I'm awake for a while, then fall back asleep for a few hours. It's comforting for me to know that it's nothing to freak out about, that it's actually a natural human sleep pattern. Here is a link that might be useful: Biphasic sleep study info...See Moreproblems w/pebble fina grigio...does anyone have pictures?
Comments (9)I'm not sure what you mean by "very little rock/color shows through." Unlike Pebbletec and Pebblesheen, which have more texture, Pebblefina is a smooth surface (i.e., no pebbles can be felt or seen), and - like plaster - will show some mottling (i.e., splotchiness). That said, yours may have been incorrectly applied and be more spotchy than it should. Any pictures? Also, you might want to post this in the discussions forum, you'll get more people to respond....See MoreAnyone else have a problem with BergerSeidle matte finish on hardwood?
