Yeah, I'll try to be more emphatic about the things that are bothering me a lot. Maybe I'll bring a sign like at a football game: "CANT SLEEP, PARANOID WILL DIE, HELP PLEASE." hahaha

I did get 6.75 hours last night, and still on half the dose of the sleep aid! Yay! I think I figured out the trick. I take all my meds earlier so I can get to sleep by 11pm. I feel more energetic and strong again.

Thanks everyone for your support. I'm still a bit paranoid, but I don't like too much meds. I always wake up with sore joints (they bend backwards because I'm double jointed) or else a stiff neck if I don't toss and turn a little at night. Don't want to sleep like a rock, ya know.
