INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This is the disease that will eventually lead to vampirism. You can contract the disease by getting attacked by vampire enemies. Physical vampiric weapons and the spell "Vampiric Drain" both have a 10% chance of transmitting the disease each time you are attacked. Morvarth’s Lair is one of the easiest place to contract Sanguinare Vampiris, as the opening area of the cave has several low-level vampires. You will be able to take several hits before dying, giving you a greater chance to get infected. Other locations include Bloodlet Throne, Haemar's Shame, Fellglow Keep, Red water Den (Dawnguard) and Broken Fang Cave. If you are infected with Lycanthropy (werewolf), you will be immune to Sanguinare Vampiris. Hircine's Ring will also make you immune. Argonians and Wood Elves are less likely to contract it as well thanks to their natural disease resistance. The disease will take 72 hours in game to transform into vampirism. After this period, the player will become a vampire.  You will see messages accompanied by red flashes as you come nearer to the 72 hour deadline. You will need to touch sunlight at least once before the game will allow you to transform into a vampire. Sanguinare Vampires can be cured by drinking a Cure Disease potion or by praying at a shrine. Avoid doing either of these for three days. You can quickly become a vampire without having to contract Sanguine Vampiris by using the console to cheat. Open the console by pressing ~. Type player.setrace playerraceracevampire and press ↵ Enter. For example, if you are a Khajit, type player.setrace khajitracevampire.

SUMMARY: Contract the disease "Sanguinare Vampiris". Ensure that you are not immune. Do not cure Sanguinare Vampiris. Use the console (PC only).


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: . The best way to help you sleep better when you are suffering from depression is to treat your depression. If it is the cause of your insomnia, treating it will make you sleep better. Most depression treatment consists of psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, and sometimes medication.  Each treatment plan is different depending on the cause and severity of your depression. Discuss your treatment options with your doctor. There are some antidepressants that can help you sleep, such as mianserin, mirtazapine, nefazodone, and trazodone. If you are unsure if your insomnia is related to your depression, ask your doctor to run some tests to see if you have an underlying sleep disorder or other condition that may be adding to your insomnia. This is especially true if you have tried multiple different things to help you sleep and it hasn’t worked.  There are also some medications that treat depression that may cause sleeplessness. Although antidepressants such as Celexa, Zoloft, and Prozac may not be a problem for some, these medications have been shown to cause insomnia is some patients. Ask your doctor if this may be the cause of your insomnia. If you think you have a sleep disorder, talk to your doctor about sleep treatment so you can cure your insomnia. If you treat your depression but still have insomnia, you are at risk of a depression relapse because insomnia often causes depression, especially if you have suffered from it before. In order to help clear your mind at night, try to set up a time period (no more than two hours) to allow yourself to dwell on the things that are making you upset. This may help to keep your worries confined to a short window before bedtime so that you will not dwell on them while you are trying to fall asleep. You can also try writing your worries down before you go to bed. Trying to get eight to nine hours of sleep every night right in the beginning may be difficult. Instead, think of your efforts to sleep in small steps, which will keep you from getting overwhelmed and frustrated. Start out by trying to get one more hour of sleep the first night. The next night, try to get an additional hour of sleep. Before you know it, you will be sleeping the whole night through. It may take more than one night to extend your sleeping schedule. Just take it a little at a to avoid making yourself more depressed by failing to meet your goals. When you are depressed, you may have a hard time relaxing enough to fall asleep. If this happens to you, try relaxation techniques before bed. These include deep breathing techniques, muscle relaxation techniques, or visualization techniques.  You can do a combination of physical and mental relaxation techniques if both your body and mind feel tense.  You may need to try a few different types before you find the ones that best work for your circumstances. When you are having a hard time falling asleep, avoid looking at the clock too much. This will make you focus too much on the amount of time it is taking you to fall asleep, which can make you even more upset, frustrated, or depressed. Instead, focus on something else, keeping your mind from obsessing about the time.  If you find yourself looking at the clock despite your best efforts, try covering the clock or moving it to a place you can’t easily see it from the bed. This will make it much harder for you to see the time and help you focus less on the passage of time. You should also avoid looking at your phone to check the time as well. Not only will it make you get anxious about the passage of time, the light emitted from the phone can actually stimulate your body enough to make it harder for you to sleep. Two of the major risk factors of suicide are depression and insomnia. Those with depression and insomnia are much more likely to become suicidal as opposed to depressed patients who sleep well. If you find yourself getting to this point, talk to your doctor about getting some help. You can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1 (800) 273-8255. If you are hearing impaired, you can call 1-800-799-4TTY (4889).

SUMMARY: Treat your depression See your doctor to check for underlying sleep disorders. Set aside a time to dwell on your worries. Start small. Try relaxation techniques. Avoid staring at the clock. Watch for suicidal thoughts.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can also get some fiberfill to fill your pillow with instead. This project takes a little bit more time than the knotting version, but the results are well-worth it, because you don't get those bulky knots. For a more interesting pillow, consider getting a solid color and a matching pattern. For a simpler pillow, consider getting two different solid colors instead. Depending on the size of your pillow, you will need about 1 yard (0.92 meters) of each type of fleece. This is very important because you won't be turning the pillow inside-out at the end. It probably won't make too much of a different if you are using only solid colors, but it may make a different if you are using patterned fleece; sometimes, the pattern may only be on one side. Use a ruler and a pair of fabric scissors (or a rotary cutter) to ensure that your lines are straight. Also, try to cut though both layers at the same time. This will ensure that both pieces of fleece match up. If you need to, draw the squares first using a ruler and a piece of chalk. Be sure to cut through both layers of fleece so that everything matches up. If you need to, draw the lines using a piece of chalk and a ruler first. Make sure that you cut through both pieces of fleece. This way, you can be certain that the tassels will match up. The slit needs to be centered, and it needs to be at the base of the tassel, where the fringe joins the pillow. Starting at the bottom left corner, take the top and bottom tassels. Keeping them together, push them through the 1-inch (2.54-centimeter) slit, and give them a gentle tug. If you are going to use fiberfill to stuff your pillow with, complete most of the fourth side, leaving only four tassels undone. Simply tuck your pillow form into the fleece, or stuff it with fiberfill, then weave the opening shut. If you see any chalk on your tassels from before, gently brush it off.

SUMMARY:
Get a pillow form. Get some fleece. Stack the two pieces of fleece with the right sides facing out and the wrong sides facing in. Cut the fleece so that it is 8 inches (20.32 centimeters) longer and 8 inches (20.32 centimeters) wider than your pillow. Cut a 4-inch (10.16-centimeter) square out of each corner. Cut 1½-inch (3.81-centimeter) wide, 4-inch (10.16-centimeter) deep slits into all four sides of your fleece. Cut a 1-inch (2.54-centimeter) long vertical slit into each tassel. Take your first two tassels, and push them through the slit. Keep weaving the tassels until you have completed three sides. Stuff your pillow, then finish weaving the fourth side.
