Hi. I slept 10 hours last night. I'm not too drowsy this morning. It's still morning here. I was able to fall asleep at 11:30. I took the pill at 9:40, so that's pretty good. I only take 15mg and they're gel caps, so you can't cut them in half. But I also have 30mg, so it is like taking a half.
I hope to get some more writing done today. I wrote a short story yesterday. That's 2 now in well over a year. I miss it all the time, but usually I'm too overwhelmed to do it. Trying not to beat up on myself if I don't do as well as yesterday.
Sugahorse, I agree that you should talk to your doc about your concerns in taking that sleep aid long term. There has to be something safer that could still get you to sleep.
