Hes’ce everyone!
Well it’s 3 AM CST and I’m up. Yesterday I had another trip to an urgent care. I have a wisdom tooth 🦷 that has been giving me the blues. It started causing me to have migraines, continuous fevers and now the ear on the left side..same side as the wisdom tooth started hurting as well. I have medication to take to prevent infection while I figure out dental payments/dental insurance. __________________ #SpoonieStrong Spoons are a visual representation used as a unit of measure to quantify how much energy individuals with disabilities and chronic illnesses have throughout a given day. 1).

Hi guys, new to the “club”. I haven’t really slept now for two days. I mean, restful sleep that is. It’s 4:25am and I’m tired but unable to sleep. My work schedule being 3rd shift probably has a lot to do with that. Think it’s gonna be another day where I don’t get out of bed except to make food and pee.

I have a headache and I’m very cranky from not sleeping. I did drop off around 7am to 9 but two hours is not nearly enough. More broken dreams of driving a horse and buggy in rush hour traffic, a disagreement with my daughter over her daughter and some kind of pink soufflé in a chicken bucket. There was also a waiter who kept touching me and looked an awfully lot like Austin powers. Disjointed not pleasant dreams.
I tried going back to bed but Sir doesn’t like it when I go to bed during the day. He comes and sits and stares at me and uses his head to lift my hands. I think he remembers the depressions where I stayed in bed for weeks. As far as I can tell I’m not depressed just cranky and tired. But I pleased Sir by getting up and got dressed. __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

I think pets are waaaaay smarter than the average person makes them out to be. Pets understand human emotion and behavior much better than most idiot humans do. Sounds like you had an interesting dream! Sometimes I wish I could record my dreams and burn 'em to a DVD or blu-ray something... or upload them to the internet so I can watch them later and share them with my friends. lol. |

Yes changing to shift work especially at night makes it hard to sleep when the rest of the world is up and making noise. When I worked 3rd shift I always had a fan running, White noise effect ... Might want to try and see if that helps __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

I've been falling asleep pretty well - but after a few hours our male cat wakes me up meowing. I think he gets anxiety in the night when it's dark and all is quiet.
He's usually upset for about an hour. He has kitty calm down drops but he hates them so I try not to give them unless he's acting outrageous. So - my sleep is good for a few hours, then I'm up for a few hours, then I doze for a few hours. No nightmares since I started the prazosin though. |

Same thing. I sleep like crap at night and sleep like a rock as soon as the sun comes up. The Seroquel isn't doing jack. Which is actually a good thing, because I don't want to be on it.

Slept from about 10pm until 4am, albeit with a couple of wake ups.
I have become increasingly restless over these past few days. It is not mania, but possibly akathisia again. I don't know if my cogentin is working anymore. And the restlessness sucks because it keeps me awake at times! I pace, pace, pace... Then i get mad that I can't focus on anything to distract from the restlessness. (Thinking about too many things at once while trying to pace the restlessness away.) |

Good Morning, blue. I just want to share...neither cogentin nor propanalol did anything to help my tremors and akathesia. Then my pdoc came up with the idea to try something called "Amantadine." It's been incredibly helpful. My hand tremor is down so low that I can write nicely without the letters going all over the place. Even the akathesia is much improved. __________________ |
