I don't think I ever encourage people to drink so they can sleep.
Do you drink any caffeinated drinks during the day... even tea, coffee, etc? If you do, perhaps try cutting it down.
Do some physical exercise.... have a bath before going to bed.... try doing everything that helps you to relax.
You poor thing....

I don't touch coffee nowadays .... the last time I drank coffee was .... in june ? with another forumer. ...
I think I just need a break to get away from it all .... step back from everything for a little while ... I'm sick of worrying about bills and the money clients owe me that never comes in and one fellow called me up yesterday afternoon to tell me again that he can't afford to pay me for another month while he cruises around in a brand new mazda 3, way past the 90 days I gave him all farking pricks cos I can't do any future planning when I can't even predict my monthly cash flow with fellows like these
And worrying about the long term future plans and wondering how the hell am I going to get there I won't be in my 20s for much longer and my golden decade is nearly gone and how to grow this thing and outstanding projects and upcoming ones and the new lobang that I am starting up with other people in september and sick of my parents thinking that i'm a professional bum because I work from home and wondering which office I can afford so I can get away from home
And worrying about being the fillial son wanting to give them more money than what my younger sister does who brings them out on holidays and stuff and worrying about my brother who'll be going to uni after NS but my father's already retired and I have promised myself to support him through school wondering sometimes how nice it would be to just get a slack 9-5 job and wait for a fixed paycheck every month but knowing that I'll never ever ever ever ever be satisfied being an employee and underling not even if I get paid millions a year and I can never go back to that route ever again
And sick of drinking too much and eating too much and now starting to smoke too much when I was nearly down to one pack a MONTH before and loosing so much hair as a result and looking like a bloated dowdy dumpling and being grouchy with family and friends and not even being able to find time to go diving and go to the sea my first love and mistress and i don't even want to go into the love life which is nonexistent now anyways except for old ghosts ....
I have half a mind to go jogging now but I can't cos I am still buzzed from the beer and prata supper from last night .... head hurts and I've been trying to work all night after failing to get back to sleep again after the nightmare with no success and little to show for it ...and so a new day begins and a week draws to and end ....
bah ... sorry for ranting, but that felt much much better ... perhaps some breakfast now would help .... at least it's time for patches' breakfast and garden romp ....

How old are you??? I don't think you are even 30 yet, right????? Please stop worrying so much, my friend! Not going to do you any good.
What business are you running at the moment? You might be right about stepping back a little bit from what you're doing and reassess what would work for you. While I understand it's not easy being an employee, we sometimes have to be realistic about it. It might be worth working for a few more years for people to collect all the ideas, experiences etc before we start running our own business.
Also, try not to put too much pressure on yourself about what you can do for your parents. Your parents love you regardless. I think you will hurt them more if they see you are stressed and unhappy.
Look after yourself, my friend!!!!

Hunnymousey is right... sometimes, you do have to work as an employee for a few years before stepping out on your own. Well, at least that's the path that most successful entrepreneurs have taken.
And, Fatum, you do seem to be stressing yourself out too much. You want to achieve so many things by a certain age, reminding me of how I used to think too. But I've since learnt that you can have the best-laid plans in the world, but all the planning you do doesn't take into account the foul balls that life throws at us sometimes.
Things seldom happen uneventfully and we just have to learn to endure. You might plan the best route to take to reach your destination, but along the way, there might be shortcuts that do not appear on the mapped route that you can choose to take, but there might also be massive traffic jams that are unexpected. It's sometimes not feasible to slap a time limit on certain events, simply because there will be too many variables encountered along the way.
It's tough but keep reminding yourself that it's the journey that really matters.

trying to keep to a strict schedule sleeping and if possible, avoid working very late only trying compensating the sleep in the day. I have alway find solace in meditation and try reading a book "How to stop worrying and start living". It helps me in a certain way . It doesn't solve your work problems but gives you a better perspective in your problems.

Tell all of you this very bizarre case we've got in the ICU...
A nineteen year old boy had the flu, and the virus apparently migrated to his brain and caused an infection there, which then became so bad that his brain swelled so much that ... and you will be shocked to hear this... parts of his brain was squeezed into his sinus cavities and the back of his mouth!!!

wow....this is shocking. Can he be cure? may he get well soon. -
nope.. i've seen it before..
in the office.. the people all had runny noses..
they thought they caught the cold..
but i bet it was those Korean and HK drama serials they were circulating that made their brains blow up and dribble out of their nasal passages..

Watch it! You just might end up marrying someone who watches all such dramas on a regular basis and return home every night to the sounds of TV drama filling up your entire living room! Harharhar!
And... I DO NOT THINK you have 'seen it before'. Even those of us who've worked in the ICU for years have not come across such cases of the brain spilling out into the nasal sinuses. Coning (brain going into the brain stem, ie 'back of mouth'), yes. -
boom di ada is much more interesting than braindead soaps..
anytime..

The thing is, he will never be the same again. He is suffering from a really serious condition that is adversely affecting the brain. Even if he 'recovers', he will definitely have mental deficits that will affect him very badly. He might even lose the ability to move about on his own. In the worst case scenario, he'll be a complete 'vegetable'.

Life has a very interesting way of throwing curveballs.
And, you should be old enough to know that one man's meat is another man's poison.

omg omg!!! hope he recovers soon!

uh huh..
life is also all about learning.. knowing that the person is ingesting what is poisonous to me doesn't mean i have to go eat the stuff with the person... and that person would know better than to force the other to eat the stuff...
and if that person still chooses to eat the stuff, the staff of the Darwin Awards are waiting

Precisely!
So you go stick to your chosen poison, and I'll stick to mine.
And what you dislike ain't necessary dumb. It is just YOUR opinion and really, who are you to impose your yardstick on others?
I may be doing something that you feel is 'dumb' but you may be into something that I feel is totally brainless. Therefore, the morale of the story is, to live and let live and don't enforce your opinions on others.

I feel really sad for him and his family, esp since he's so young! 
Have a good day! I'm off to run some errands now!

Rhonda!
There's this singer named Sharleen Spiteri who used to front a pop band named Texas...thing is, she's gone solo now and I think you might like her music. It's like Duffy's because it's soul and she also recycles some old tunes.

have i enforced anything?
it's a gag!!

patches and cookie played "dig around the backyard" last night ... again .......
