Unhappy

what are your night meds?
sounds like you could use something to help you sleep.
I did not realize you had only been getting 2-4 hours of sleep at night. This is totally not acceptable.
I would call today and request something to sleep.
I take .5mg klonipin, 5mg zyprexa, and prolonged released 3mg of melatonin.
And this combo gets me sleep.
Except for when I have hot flashes i stay asleep too.

Bobby

I'm wondering have you tried turning on some music low when your
trying to sleep. Maybe just something soothing would help.

Maybe its more the quiet of the night, or maybe you need a light
on. Maybe you sleep during the day better.

I know I sometimes have trouble sleeping at night, but I happen
to know its when I've drank to much caffeine during that day.
But that is just me. And I can't stop thinking about things.
I just can't get to sleep in the first place.

So I stay tired all day, and then sleep usually the night after.

I have no trouble falling asleep which is usually 12:00. It is that I just wake up so early.

I would definitely call your Dr and let them know that you are not sleeping that well. There has to be something that they can do or prescribe to help. Sleep is very important, and you need more than what you are getting.

I never tried that. doesn't it cause weight gain?
Back in 2007, Lilly was required to add a strong warning label to Zyprexa indicating the drugs tendency to cause weight gain, high blood pressure, and other metabolic problems. ... These issues, weight gain and changes in metabolism, profoundly threaten long-term health.
i have high blood pressure

5mg is a small dose.

In larger doses it can cause weight gain for sure.
