No. It doesn't work for me. Which is odd I guess. Cos I'm an insomnic. I tend to be very unfocused and I'll realise I keep reading the same lines over and over again, without getting any of it in. I produce crappy work when I'm tired.
How has it helped me? There was once I was so tired that I sawyed on the spot like a bloody drunk when I got down from the bus. Then I tried to light a cigarette to calm my nerves and make myself more awake. And you know what? I couldn't get the blasted lighter to work. I kept trying to light to no avail. My fingers couldn't work properly. So I gave up and didn't smoke then.
That counts as 'help' right? Cos per cigarette takes away like 3 minutes of your life? Haha.

Well, I can understand what you mean about thoughts coming to you better when you're half awake, but I can only relate to that speaking in terms of that half asleep/half awake feeling one gets either right before fully waking up, or right before fully falling asleep.
I can't understand how actually depriving yourself of sleep would increase your mental faculties.
For me, it would have quite the opposite effect.
I'm damn near legally drunk when I'm that tired.

i became having alot of stress before dozing and ought to no longer doze off. Had many many sleepless nights. i became purely taking area in with this methodology one afternoon and had to hearken to the �skill Nap� music. next ingredient I knew i became waking up! Fell top asleep with out attempting. After utilising the �Fall Asleep� music, i ought to doze off without delay. yet i did not understand that I should not be utilising that one all nighttime. Switched to entire nighttime and performance been utilising it ever considering. i am going to bypass to sleep conveniently now. I purely lay and pay interest to the sounds and next ingredient i understand i'm waking up from a astounding sleep. i do not struggle through from lack of sleep anymore. I keep an IPod with earbuds next to my mattress and take it always even as vacationing. The earbuds help block out ambient noise and the sleep tracks keep me dozing sound :) Reboot your mind & sleep soundly back?

I spend the day in la la land. Easily distracted and day-dreamy. I'm usually not that productive. But if I got some action the night before...well that's a different story!
