Trouble Sleeping?

[Mr_Kiwi]

Okay does anyone else have trouble sleeping due to not being able to take your mind of the marines?

I know theres that thread of the 'RMs ruined my head' but Im losing sleep because I cant stop thinking about it and I still have 5 months before I even get to the UK!

Its not nerves I think its more just being anxious to get over there. Did/do anyone else have sleeping problems before joining? (just want to check Im not completely bonkers)

Cheers

Its been driving me nuts for the last few weeks ive been so anxious as i was meant to start training for the paras today but now im delayed because i have to attend a medical but yeh for months before i was lying awake thinking about it and dreaming about it i think its only natural mate i havent found a solution for it except i find on the days i do circuit training i tend to sleep better...

I wonder why...

[Mr_Kiwi]

yea, I figure its a good way to keep up the training. If I want to sleep I need to kick my ass physically all day.

I've always had trouble sleeping anyway. I'm hoping that a lifetime of sleep deprivation will put me in good stead for CTCRM (if I ever get there)

It sounds like your just anxious with the long wait. Hence you're thinking about it at night when you go to bed. Its only natural, so expect it.

I was nervous when I first joined up too. So were a lot of the other guys. I was homesick also. But as the weeks went on this went away as we bonded more and more as a team.

Remember, when you walk into a strange room for the first time, its strange. After you've walked in there a few more times your surroundings become familiar and then its not!

I guess its just a case of preparing yourself physically and mentally whilst you wait patientally for your joing day and then hopefully quickly getting over your joining nerves.

All the very best

home sickness shouldnt be a problem, i figure i'll be over that by the time i start training.

It may sound stupid but I've been writting lists about everything I need to take with me when I move, and where all the other stuff is going and who too, and crap like that. Kind of organising my thoughts I guess.

Plus a good shag with the girlfriend before bed is always helpful

How about a good shag without the girlfriend??

[Mr_Kiwi]

How about a good shag without the girlfriend??

Depends...
If you mean without her, but with another chick then I think that'll just lead to even more sleepless nights

If you mean to have some 'Alone Time' then I guess that could work, but I take the option I suggested anytime

Whats to figure out mate? You never had something in your life that you think about all the time and that you cant sleep right because your always thinking about it? Maybe next time I can try smaller words because honestly I dont see how you can not understand the post.
