Thanks for your reply. I cannot take sleep aids because I just don't wake up on time and I have a young son so I can't sleep in. Benadryl will sometimes work so maybe I will try that.

I took the last of my husband's klonopin (he gve them to me when they didn't help his sleep disorder). I feel calmer. Unfortunately I don't have my own scrip so I guess it's just a stopgap until the energy returns.

I must wait until Thursday to see the pdoc as this is an initial evaluation and it took me months to even get this appointment. I have been self medicating until I cn get there. Thankfully it is less than a week. I am glad my husband hasn't tried to commit me :-) this is why I don't tell him what's going on.
