It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

I feel your pain, Nick. Been there on too many occasions to count em. I get it real bad about once every two or three months. Worst are the prolonged two and three week spells of it. Get to a stage where just functioning during the day is a massive fucking chore.
I do find getting pissed drunk and popping a Tylex or a Zydol does help though. But be careful with the booze to pill ratio - it can kill you.
Yeah, it's a bastard isn't it. Last summer I just accepted it and forced myself to stay awake the whole night every other day for a month. That helped a lot, and now I can do about 3 hrs sleep no problems as long as I get at least 8 the next night, but some nights I just know by about 12 there is no way I'm sleeping. I get them weeks as well where you just crash and burn, always get one or two in the middle of May, luckily had it earlier this year so didn't fuck up my exams.
Had it for the past 3 days and I'm just a zombie today. Not functioning at all.
Yeah the booze can help, sometimes getting blind drunk is the best way. I never touch the pills when I've been drinking as I have no clue how it works and it's not something you trial and error.
Having sponging scumbag student mates who will have FIFA marathons at 3am is also useful!
I feel sorry for you lads im the opposite i can fall alseep anywhere and at any time and am always asleep within about 15 seconds of my head hitting the pillow at night

Lucky fucker! Actually the first sentence explains a lot about your FIFA skills!

Fucking hell, sounds like you really get it bad. I certainly don't have insomnia but whenever I'm stuck awake at a stupid hour its always great find someone else is on fifa when you switch on the box
Have your exams already finished?! I've got them till the end of June

You got PSN?
I'm on xbox live. Shame really, I've always wondered how many goals I could beat you by (I'd probably lose 3-0 anyway )
I've got a couple every week until the 28th. Only done 8 so far though, started on 16th May and this week has been free.

I'm actually decent at FIFA. Jase bren and Flash on the other hand...
I await DB10 calling you a *word censored* for having xbox. Think of it this way while you are slaving away I will be lying on a beach in 35 degrees and only getting up to swim play football and eat.
