Birds singing

[_lmh_1223]

3.30am where I live (scotland) and the birds are up already and chirping away and I've not had a wink of sleep yet, new sleeping tablets clearly haven't worked yet haha

Hope everyone else is managing to sleep 😁

Hi guys, I am really sorry for your insomnia. I've had a lot of that lately, but the last two days I did too much and slept like a rock, too long in fact. But . . . as per usual, it's flexeril and vicodin today. Rest and a cup or two o' joe.

Now here is one I never heard of. A lot of meds have side effects of drowziness. Benadryl and most sleep aids are worthless for me too.

My psychiatrist (I'm also Bipolar) prescribed a mood stabilizer/mild antipsychotic in a very low dose. (ziprexa) I don't imagine this med is approved just for sleep . . . I could ask at my next appt. in a month.

I wish there was an easy fix. Take care and may winken blinken and nod pay you a visit soon.

Well, I looked it up on the web. It is sometimes used with drugs like Prozac and may assist sleep disorders. (also OCD)

But those are not main uses.
