I went to the doctor Thursday and mentioned I have had insomnia for quite some time now. He gave me a ton of samples, along with a prescription of something that will help me sleep at night. You start off slowly, of course, and work your way up to the desired amount. I would eventually make it up to the 300 mg. mark. So, Thursday night, I started off with 50 mg. I slept through my entire Friday , that I couldn't even make it to work. It was the best damn sleep I ever had. I think Gracie had to come up to me and check up on me every now and then and make sure I was actually breathing.
The second night, I slept the entire day again. Saturday night (the third night), I tried cutting back and took it way later than usual and went to bed thinking I was still going to sleep in late considering how late I took it. Amazingly, I was up at 9:15 a.m. and was up for the rest of the day with no nap. My head actually hurt from sleeping entirely too much.
Today, I'm dragging. I can barely keep my eyes open. I almost need toothpicks to pry my lids open! I'm afraid of closing them in fear of falling asleep! Crazy I tell you!
No matter how sleepy I may be the following day, I'm just happy I'm sleeping at night now.
Ahhhh, sleep!
