Have you ever heard of the Hour of the Wolf?

My father told me about it. It's the time between 3:00 and 4:00 in the morning. You can't sleep, and all you can see is the troubles and the problems and the ways that your life should've gone but didn't. All you can hear is the sound of your own heart.

I've been living in the Hour of the Wolf for seven days, Lyta. Seven days. The Wolf and I are now on a first-name basis. In times like this, my father used to take one large glass of vodka before bed. "To keep the Wolf away," he said. And then he would take three very small drinks of vodka, just in case she had cubs while she was waiting outside.

It doesn't work.

This happens way too often, especially with no internet. Nice read.

I have trouble sleeping no matter the hour, I see my troubles all the time, even during the day.

I experience this way to much. during the day I give off a vibe of being happy go lucky and carefree but during this hour I have the same thoughts of "What if".

after this hour has passed I shake the thoughts and decide its time to sleep and try to enter a meditative state listening to soothing music.

sweet dreams anon.

>Seven days.
That's pretty weak. I'm sure most /jp/edos have been experiencing this for years.

Also google says this is from Babylon 5 but I've never watched that show.

babylon 5

[Nanaya !yrBrqfF1Ew No.]

I don't think it really works for me, as I am usually up past 4am.

But no, I have never heard of that or had that. I have a very.. "If shit happens, it happens. You can't change the past or predict the future" attitude.

What's worked for me for a long-ass time is to go listen to okkusenmon, cry a little bit, shake my fist at the world, and go to sleep.

whenever I try to go to sleep I think about all the terrible, embarrassing social slips-of-the-tongue I've had over the years

All those singularly stupid things I said.
It crushes me. FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUU

I still remember stuff from when I was a teenager, when girls still liked me but I was a fucking social disaster. All the things I ruined haunt me.

>>4631781
This shit. I get it day and night - I remember all the fucking horrible things i've done as a person, from things I said to physical impulses I gave into without thinking

You know what sucks? When you fuck up everything in high school and you think you can have a fresh start in college, then you fuck that up too. Now what the fuck am I supposed to do?

[Anonymous No.]

Not give a shit.
In college, I fucked up. So I sat in the corner and played touhou, aced every class.
Just remember to never say anything to anyone, even if they ask you questions or demand things of you.

Its nice to see I'm not the only one who's haunted by stupid small mistakes made earlier in life.
So many incredibly small things just wont leave me alone making me feel guilty, stupid and regretful. Especially at night.

[NukuAnon !KkQuCBjG6M No.]

I think this kind of stuff is the reason I'm such an Insomniac. which is why I'm trying meditation to clear my mind before I head to bed, but it sucks waking up in the middle of the night and you can't fall back asleep because of shit on your mind.
>>4631849
that...helps actually....

Me too, and the stuff I think about isn't even shit that affects me anymore. I became moderately successful, certainly more successful than most of the idiots from my high school, but I sill think about dumb shit from high school or stuff that happened during the day, like if I bumped into a girl at the store or forgot my pen somewhere. It's so meaningless but I dwell on it more than my accomplishments.

threads like this make me feel more sane, because all yall got more mental issues than I do. thanks guys!

[MANkoto !/uhtKOHuio No.]

I don't regret anything. Also, I'm still awake around those times and all I feel is the need to kill boredom.
