For the past week or so I've been draining myself of sleep. Maybe not on purpouse, but, you know.

I try to go to bed early, but I end up tossing and turning until midnight until I finally fall into a light sleep. Sometimes I'll wake up at 3 in the morning, never with pleasant dreams, but it's still hard to fall asleep again. During the last two or three classes at school every day, I feel like I could fall asleep right there. When my homework is light, I say I'll take a nap when I get home. But right when I get through the door, I'm not tired. But looking in the mirror, I always have giant dark bags under my eyes, dragging me down.

Even a few months ago, when I still had a good amount of sleep, my vision was failing on me. For about 5 months, I can't read the board at school, in any class, even when I squint. The other day I couldn't read the board at math, the teacher asked if I needed glasses and he siad I *should* be able to read the board. I had to read something out loud at SS today, and all I saw was blur. A girl sitting next to me let me borrow her glasses to read, and I could see clearly, which scared me a little.
Even when we were about 2 and a half months through the year, we took a vision test, and... Let me just say I didn't do well at all.
My friend is bringing me a pair of her old glasses tomorrow for me to borrow until I discuss it with my mom and go to an eye doctor to help me out more thoroughly.

Just felt like sharing my crappy mood. -_-

Aww... Oh well... Just ignore your non-tiredness and glasses aren't that bad...
*pats head*
Hope things get better

When you get home and don't feel tired any more you should do some exercise until you sweat. That will get you to sleep better. don't do it too late other wise you'll be wired and sleep crappier.

When my eyes when, they went quick and it was about 6 months to a year. Glasses aren't too bad but they take time to get used to.

See if sleep helps your eyes 😊

@Meixiotian I don't think glasses are bad. The last time I went to an eye doctor was when I was 9, and at that point I WANTED glasses. X3 So that was about... 3, maybe 3 and a half years ago Yeahh. Now I'm just concerned that I'd look awful with glasses; Plus failing vision brings the option of contacts, which I'm terribly afraid to ever put in my eyes.

@Piucca But I am a lazy butt who hates working out. xD I could try though...

I try to get good sleep sometimes, and when I do it just seems to make my vision worse.

It can't be my computer either, I go on EggCave for a little bit each day but normally come online for projects. I'm still a little iffy on glasses, but at the same exact time I'd somewhat enjoy it.

Both of my parents have glasses, my mom got them at a young age, my dad has them for reading. My mom said she wouldn't be surprised if I had needed them last year. Maybe I just managed to go a little longer. XD

@dreamer
Contacts aren't bad.
Once you get them in once you can do it a million times 😊
It doesn't hurt and they slip right in.

When I first got contacts it took me 15mins to get them in XD
My eyes were blood shot and sore -.-
After that day I never had any issues 😃

@Piucca I'm paranoid, but if need be, someday maybe I would do contacts. ^^ How the heck do you get them out? O_o

piucca • 5 March 2012 at 5:44 PM

@dreamer
Same way you get them in.
When putting them in you look WAY to the side, plop the contact in the center then turn your eyes to meet the contact.

Take them out, drag the contact to the center while you look to the side, then a small pinch to get them out 😃

You really don't feel anything.
Go in the mirror right now and poke
the whites of your eye (Clean finger)
It looks funny XD
