I'm having trouble falling asleep at work. When we're in the classroom and my student is working independently I can't keep my eyes open. It's horrible and my teacher just called me out on it so it's noticeable. I apologized and said I'm switching meds (no details) but I have to do something to stay awake. I can't drink coffee, it upsets my stomach. I can and do drink diet soda. I'm wondering if I got a big diet soda and slammed it in the morning if the caffeine would be enough to keep me awake. I feel horrible for falling asleep and I could lose my job. Anyone have any tips for staying awake? I don't know if this is med relayed or if I'm just so exhausted from the constant anxiety. I'm gonna switch taking latuda to the afternoon too just in case.
