-more sleeping pills
-run into a brick wall
-even more sleeping pills
(seriously though, 22 hours of no sleep is NOT healthy at all. Getting off TB is the first step.
second step is sleeping pills)

I study neurosciences so I'm not bsing. I suggest reading something heavy could help. Something hard to understand that isn't particularly interesting :P.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Knoxville, TN | | | When I have insomnia, it's usually because my mind is buzzing w/ thoughts, excitement, etc... the only thing that works for me is keeping my eyes closed (of course) and visualizing a deep sky blue around me... studying the blue, looking for clouds to pass by. It doesn't take me long to calm my mind and slip away. The color blue is known to be relaxing and is used in many ways to calm people.
