Have you tried sleep aids? Like... 'herbal' supplements?

If you're taking ADHD meds, it's hard to imagine you sleeping in class in a literal sense.

So, let's see, there's proprioception, touch, pain, temperature, and something. Tickling, maybe. I don't remember. Let's Google it.
http://neuroscience.uth.tmc.edu/s2/chapter02.html
Oooh, an entertaining interactive textbook with animations! Looks like tickle is just a subset of touch. There's a nice table with the neural pathways involved. We never had cool stuff like this when I was in school.
Man, I remember a roommate with a teratology text where you just plain didn't want to even open the thing for fear of what might be burned into your brain forever. He'd read it while eating lunch. This was the same roommate that got some ant pheromone from a biology lab and used it to spell an invisible naughty word on the sidewalk. Invisible until the ants showed up, that is.

Gamma motor receptors go inside to innervate intrafusal muscle spindles. Alpha motor receptors go around and innervate the extrafusal muscle fibers. And that's pretty much proprioception in a nut shell.
Oh, except for Golgi tendon reflexes... but I'm sure that's not important.

Did I tell you I applied to 7 grad schools this fall and got rejected by all of them? You're doing better than I am, my friend.

My problem is I sleep DURING class. Once I hit the nod portion it's over. He can talk about whatever he want, I'm no longer in the room. All focus is on keeping my head stay straight.
But my class is on the tail end of a 17 hour day.

To be fair, if you inspect the jeansotype long enough you can definitely identiify the penotype. Patience and a thorough approach are rewarded with success!

I just found out you can get a degree in unmanned aircraft systems. That's flying drones, y'all. Screw psychology, I want to spy on people with my robot airplane!

Unfortunately you would probably be gunning down people in Pakistan. You seem like to nice of a person for the job.

He's actually a cold blooded killer.
You can see it in his eyes.

Supposedly only military people can kill people with drones. Civilians can only do reconnaissance or work for border patrol, PDs, the CIA, etc. Snooping stuff. Supposedly.
Really, I just like RC toys, and flying a giant remote control plane with high resolution cameras would be sweet. Except when I was inevitably ordered to violate someone's civil rights.
