Sleep Deprivation

Villa_Ste said:Cus of the hours i work i only wind up getting about 5/6 hours sleep a night which is about half of what i like lol. I've heard of correct me if im wrong, zma's which help quality of sleep. Would these help me out and make me feel like i've had more sleep?

Theres been times when ive had 2 hours sleep then had an awesoem gym sesion the next day. ZMA worksM makes me fall into a deeper sleep and have incredible somtimes scary dreams.. the most common ones for me, were spiders crawling all over me the size of a hand and someone trying to break into my flat, both oF them i eneded up in the living room with my cover round me thinkiNG, fuk im such a pussy.

funny you mention that granty, I noticed I became a paranoid mess at night when taking ZMA. I'd just bought a really expensive guitar and dreamt the same night that someone was on his way over to break into my flat to steal it (and nothing else), so in my dream I decided the most sensible thing to do would be go and bring the guitar into the bedroom and put it beside my bed. Later on in the dream I started to panic again that it still wasn't safe, and anyway I woke up the next morning with the guitar next to me IN BED wondering what the f**k went on last night, and what the f**k was going through my mind that made me actually get up out of bed TWICE to do this!
ZMA - deeper better quality of sleep? my ass! sleep walking is not fun, what if I had a dream my flat was on fire and decided i should jump out of the window down 4 floors!? f**k that!
