Pretty much the sleep thing stinks. I worry that I am getting worse. I want to be well. I slept 3 hours Sunday night. Then I fell asleep in front of the tv for 1 hour Monday evening. I'm still up. I don't want to go to bed but I am drop down sleepy. Tdoc called to check on me. We arranged an appt in 2 weeks. My acupuncturist returned my call. I might see her this weekend. M. |

Mari
I am thinking of you. I really wish I had a clue how to help you figure out how to sleep better at night. I can totally understand being tired during the day. I've been having trouble sleeping at night too at times. But I decided that if I really feel like I need to sleep during the day. Like today that I would do so. I honestly cancelled a PT appointment because I felt that sleeping this morning was much more important. So I ended up sleeping from about 12 last night, till getting up and getting Derrick off on his bus at 6:30. I then slept on the couch till 9am. And then my husband got up, and with all 4 dogs on the couch with me. I told my husband I was going to lay down till 10am, because I was to leave at that point to go to PT at 11am. But I couldn't sleep because of being worried, I shouldn't have worried my husband had planned to make sure I knew it was 10am. But I came out at 9:45 and told him I was cancelling my PT because I just didn't feel good, and needed to sleep. After cancelling I went back to bed till 1pm. WOW, it was really goo. Donna |

Dear Mari,
i am hoping you got to see your accupuncturist. i will check back in at some point to see if you have an update. meanwhile, i am just hoping you get your sleep in, whenever you can. Dear Donna, good for you! (and i so enjoyed the bit about the couch with all four dogs up on there... i bet it was nice and warm, for sure!) --------------------- recently i had a period of extreme fatigue and insomnia with broken sleep - plus a plethora of other issues (due to my performing idiocies with my benzo taper). anyway, i decided sleep is a huge huge management factor with this, and that i can't afford to let the attempt at a "civilized" schedule stop me from getting enough sleep. so, i have given myself permission to sleep however much and whenever i need OR want, at least until i finish the taper. if i manage to get a job of course i will have to remove the "whenever" clause but the weekends will be free rein still. i am off caffeine completely too (unbelievable for me! i have not even had a "vacation" from caffeine since i was 16!) and i actually think that is helping my nerves and my sleep quality overall. i find that not fighting tiredness constantly has made an amazing difference, even in my mood. ~ waves ~ |

I have been wondering how you are doing and hoping that your absence was not related to difficulties. I hope sleep is good for you. Benzo tapers are hard. M. |
