I remember reading about Michael Jackson and the knock out meds he took and understand why he took them, unfortunately I don't have fame and fortune to get access to knock out meds.
I have so much trouble with sleep that it is really, really starting to frighten me. I have been on everything. Starting to wonder whether I will ever sleep again. Tonight, have a new Zyprexa prescription to re-try and see if it works now. We'll see. I'll probably go to bed at 9 and be wide awake by 11. As usual.

So, I really feel for everyone who struggles with sleep. It is a serious health issue. People like us have a much, much shorter lifespan. It's bad.

All of which is I guess why Michael Jackson is dead. He turned to the appalling underground healthcare that is available to the wealthy in Los Angeles and became dependent on a general anesthetic for his sleep. He died of a propofol overdose. He couldn't sleep. So he went to sleep forever. So sad.
