hey guys...sleep dep sucks. That's why i'm not around...first fell down the stairs and then biffed my head on a stone table later. No concussion but we went to the hospital anyway. Doc presribed seroquel to knock the heck out me and deposit my brain to the Land Of REMs...I fought right through 100 mg. Sucha a stubborn and willful gal, huh? At the ER they gave me Geodon which did end up prevailing but I had nasty s/e. I had tried Zyp in the past (actually for sleep too) and i felt like my head was spinning around (Exorcist style)...vomiting etc.
Oy- aren't we all so interesting? I think we should just love to be us because we have such diverse moods, wackadoodle neurotransmitters and uncannily (is that word i wonder. don't care) similar intellecutal.
I'd like to chat more about this famed Seroquel...I've read posts on it but never paid them any mind because it didn't apply to me...
> i also am bipolar and have fibromyalgia.
time med i'm on, augmented by the occasional xanax and vicodin or ultram for pain.>quality of life/peace of mind while on seroquel has improved dramatically from the dark place i was
Same goes for me with Provigil! I'll keep my paws crossed but...well you guys know.
Yo-yo. Dawg.>feel more able to leave the house i am spending more time at the gym (in the pool)
Isn't it so amazing...and evil at the same time- that exercise tends to help moods but the only time I can do it is when I feel good. Sooooo...? Oh I forgot you are the poolwoman! How inspirational!
>>ultra vivid dreams featuring estranged folks from my past. yucky.
Ewww. That IS yucky. I guess the people from your past are always there in the recesses of your frontal lobe somewhere! My dreams have been kooky on the Provig. And are wicked funny. A good time is had by all. I started talking in my sleep and my husband ends up laughing so hard (or I do, because i apparently guffaw while asleep now and then. Hmm what does that say about me?)
Also dreamed about cheese. ??? my husband had been trying to eat the red waxy part and I yapped at him because my impressionable nephew was going to see him and try it. Oh yeah, and I tsk and sigh. Funny schtuff.>>especially since we have the fibro/BP thing in common.
Ah yes, but what if we all start to cycle at the same time... ? :O
karen wants to sleep. really really.
I mean sleeeep.
hope eveybody's okelly dokelly...can't read many posts but am trying.Oh btw, What dose of lamictal did I sAY I was on? The correct answer would've been 550. i dunno what i wrote. 2 and 1/2 am, 3 pm.....
