Hi sleepless ones. Tonight I'm trying melatonin + valerian + 100mg neurontin. I've slept like crap all week. Sleeping 10 hours but not refreshed, waking up several times, then there was one awful night (and day) of hell from a doxepin experiment. Yup, it was SEDATING all right, like being hit with a big hammer. I want my mind to shut off, not my motor control and my heart rhythm! Tummy still bloated from the binge-eating it induced. Yup, I'm annoyed, cranky, and irritable.
The doc said I have poor sleep hygeine. Well dude, you're not getting it. If I practice good sleep hygiene I lie there awake worrying for 3 hours. Better to stay up and watch a movie or websurf. Finally my brain shuts off, just not til 3am. Give me better pills, dammit! Or how bout getting me off the freakin' SSRIs that cause the insomnia in the first place!
Sorry, just ranting.
