I feel bad for complaining because overall I am much improved. But I can no longer use doxylamine for insomnia, even at tiny doses I wake up with a nasty hangover. That first night must have been a fluke. The daytime nap thing is so so annoying, I feel like I must either drink excessive amounts of caffeine to avoid it, or give into it. If I give in, I wake up really kinda depressed, anxious, sluggish, and cranky. Which makes me want to drink caffeine which... you get it. During my extended Nardil remission several years ago I was an energy drink addict. But the side effects didn't seem to bother me as much, probably because I had structure and purpose in life which I am now trying to regain. I am encouraged by jedi's remarks that the daytime nap thing went away. Jedi, if you see this, did you use caffeine UNTIL it went away or did you stop using caffeine and allow it to go away with time? Will likely be starting school soon, I hope this nap thing resolves. Another thing I have is the constant urge to pee at night. For whatever reason, I can't seem to empty my bladder at night enough before bed and have the urge to see all night. Usually I can't get myself to take care of business until morning though. Sorry to whine, I am still pleased I've had a response. -z
