Totally the opposite, I slept all night last night for the first time in Months, I was just at the point where I was gonna go to the doctor about it, never used to do that ever, weird....
Anyway back on topic.....that sounds pretty OTT TBH, what's your employers stance on this, are they aware your having to do this, or is this your own choice?

That's two nights in a row innit? You're turning into an insomniac.
You need to lay off the caffeine fella.


Funnily enough I had a shit night Saturday night, woke up at 04:30 Sunday morning and couldn't get back to sleep. I felt real shit and miserable yesterday, but I'm bang on today.
