[br Between that and my reluctance to use the restrooms in school, I’ve developed a sphincter of steel… I just started writing a comic book for you. I’m honored. Can wait to read it nor to collect my portion of the royalties… 😂 |

I hope it works out for inger, that has to be really frustrating. |

Sorry to hear inger. Hope you find something that works for you. Right now I’m pretty determined to fight to get myself conditioned to sleep… without another damned pill. The truth is that even the Ambien was becoming unreliable, one of the reasons I didn’t mind fighting to kick it. I may even give into what they refer to as sleep counseling, which really is just counseling. It seems pointless to me because I know my demons and I’ve slayed most. I do admit that sometimes I still have a bit of PTSD. It’s not just for soldiers… Went out leaf-peeping yesterday. Photos will be on FB later. As leaf peeping goes, it wasn’t the greatest route. We saw some color, but I take risks going where there is less traffic and finding a mountain pass and just taking our chances. The overall scenery was terrific. |

Went to bed early last night. About 11:45. Couldn’t sleep. Got up at 1:45. Back to bed at 4:30. Couldn’t sleep. Back up at 5:30. Back to bed at 6:30. Finally slept until 10:45.
I even pooped 50mg of Trazadone at 11:00. Didn’t do a damned thing…

I quit using it for quite awhile, but after a few sleepless nights I started trying it again the past week or so. I’m done with it again now. |

Asked my doctor for something to help me sleep and rid myself of vampire hours. Guess what they prescribed? |

Trazodone! I'll see tonight if it works for me. I’ll an uncle’s monkey… or something like that. Best of luck. I will say one thing that I’ve notice. Lately I’d that I have more energy. I’m wk seeing is there was a lag of Ambien in my system through the day?… What dosage did the doc prescribe if I may ask?… |

I took some NyQuil last night. Not to sleep, but to relieve a stuffy feeling. Dropped dead just after 11:00 and didn’t awaken until about 9. Still feel like I want to sleep. It’s 3:45 PM and I finally have shoes on… I feel better without sleep… 🤓

It’s not right for me since I live a a high elevation in a super-dry climate. It dries me out too much. Hydration is a constant concern here… |
