Turning on all the lights helps me, sometimes.

How are you doing now? Did you sleep?
I'm on Abilify and it helps but right now I'm out and can't get to the pharmacy until Thursday. I've never let them prescribe a benzo to me so I don't know if it would help. To tell the truth they scare the hell outta me because I've had so many friends and family that were addicted and went through hell getting off them.

Once I got off work(I explained to my boss what was going on and she let me leave as soon as she got here) I went home took some sleeping pills and conked out for the rest of the day. Hopefully tonight is easier. It doesn't appear it's going to be but what can you do but ride it out and try to stay grounded? Just sucks working when it happens if I were at home i could still be sleeping thought about calling off but meh we're so short staffed it isn't funny.
