I managed a few hours of sleep lastnight, well early morning, but it was severely disrupted, which is worse than having no sleep. I felt okay on waking but when I stood up it was like I had left myself in bed. Normally I just crack on but today I felt really really odd. I am hoping it is the flare coming to a peak ready to ease off again. I still feel odd now and my whole body is aching ten times worse than it was yesterday, someone pass me a brandy lol xxxxx

I have suffered nightmares for about 37 years, since I was eleven. I am just starting the Amitriptyline road trip again as they stopped working. So I had a long break from them and now weaningup to a higher dose again. I am on 50mg at the moment and should increase again after Xmas. In a way it is futile for me to be taking them as they can cause vivid dreams. So as I have nightmares already it makes them ten times worse. But it is just something I get on with, seldom complain to anyone, and if on here I try to look on the funny side of my problems and now and again, like with topic I will say how I really feel. If you can drink camomile tea hun give it a go, it can be quite calming before bed xxxxx
