Dang, I thought you were going to say you turn into a werewolf... I'm guessing it has something to do with your mind, once I study phsycology I'll tell you

 

[Richie12345]

Ok, I'm done! Maybe it's due to the glare, maybe try those eye cover things?

 

[Richie12345]

hmm.. according to google, you're not alone. There's a lot of people that can't sleep during a full moon.... spooky!

Ivan Kelly, James Rotton and Roger Culver (1996) examined over 100 studies on lunar effects and concluded that the studies have failed to show a reliable and significant correlation (i.e., one not likely due to chance) between the full moon, or any other phase of the moon, and each of the following:


-the homicide rate
-traffic accidents
-crisis calls to police or fire stations
-domestic violence
-births of babies
-suicide
-major disasters
-casino payout rates
-assassinations
-kidnappings
-aggression by professional hockey players
-violence in prisons
-psychiatric admissions [one study found admissions were lowest during a full moon]
-agitated behavior by nursing home residents
-assaults
-gunshot wounds
-stabbings
-emergency room admissions [but see]
-behavioral outbursts of psychologically challenged rural adults
-lycanthropy
-vampirism
-alcoholism
-sleep walking
-epilepsy

I don't know my grandmother worked in a psych ward and she says its true and also my nephew has ADHD pretty bad but when there is a full moon he is OUT OF CONTROL. Maybe its a coincidence but its a pretty spooky one lol

hmmm, the Moon triggers the tides in the oceans. A woman's body is made up with over 50% of water. That's why I get weirded out At least it works for Tony LOLOL
