I do take sleeping meds, but they aren't strong enough to cause my desire to sleep. But I have started taking them earlier and earlier so that I can get more hours.

I don't have any suggestions for you except that perhaps you can have your list of meds closely looked at. Perhaps the combination is causing chronic fatigue for you - I don't know ..... just a thought.

Thank you so much for your reply.....funny thing about my meds,my pdoc is all into breathing and making yourself "aware" and stuff like that...if it was up to him he would probably not have me on any psych meds and just "puff and breathe" my way thru life,lol. Thats probably an exaggeration but i am sure you get my point.I did ask him one time to change my Ativan cuz i felt like it just wasnt cutting it as far as my anxiety was going (was dealing with the courts and such about my ex husband who was abusive.....and with CPS....needless to say i was a nervous wreck!!!) His response to trying a new antianxiety med was......."lets do an awareness session".......grrrrrr!!!!
