i slept a little last night but i didnt sleep at all the day before that so idk

sleep or no sleep

Answer 1

Ask your mom to pick up Melatonin at the grocery store.  Its over the counter, completely herbal.  Take it about thirty minutes before you want to be asleep, if this doesn't work experiment with other weak sleep aids such as Unisom.

Answer 2

DONT SLEEP, drink a cup of coffee or energy drink (I recommend NOS or Rockstar they are both pretty potent), then try to take a quick cold shower and do a quick workout youll wake up fast

Answer 3

no sleep

Answer 4

Hmm It depends.

If you are good at getting yourself up, then I would definitely.

If you can't, or have even a little bit of a hard time, don't.

I stay up all night a lot and I do pretty well, but I go to sleep like at 1-2 every night so I guess I'm more "acclimated" to it.

But Idk, if you decide to stay up, maybe just take an ice bath.  Just force yourself it should wake you up!

Answer 5

No sleep.

Caffeine

Answer 9

you have your days and night messed up no sleep pull through until bed and caffeine might make it worse when it wears off in the middle of the day...

If it continues see a doctor for sleeping pills.

Answer 17

Don't fall asleep. Once you do, you will crash and probably sleep for hours. I hope you don't do anything too dangerous at work. If you do, I would consider not going and going to sleep instead.

Answer 26

If you go to sleep now, you won't want to get up in half an hour. Just hold out and hope for the best.

Answer 27

Tough it out, then pat yourself in the back at the end of the day.

Answer 28

in order for you to get up, and statingwhat time it is where you are, the time  index says you have to be in  england...  not many here can help you there.... and 15 and working those long hours at hat time of day??  You can't be in the US or the child labo laws would prevent your employer from hiring you

Answer 30

dont even try to sleep, you will crash and not wake up.. i always do that lol.. just tuff it out trust me when you get home DO NOT go str8 to bed.. keep your a$$ up until like 9 or 10 and go to bed so that you will sleep a full night rest, if you sleep when you get home you will wake up again and be in this same situation... hope i helped! xoxo

Answer 31

Do not sleep!

Your body won't get enough rest, so it will want more if you try and sleep.  And therefor you will be asleep on the job!

I would not recommend caffeine (or cocaine, yes I'm referring to you previous poster) because that will give you a rush, and then you may crash in the middle of work.

Just take it easy and go slow with work, you will be tired, but that is your fault for not sleeping!  (no offense)
