I'm so irritated. Amazing mum puts up with me, but mostly she just avoids me. I try to handle the irritatableness but I'm so short on sleep that it comes out sideways.
I'm almost odd in my thoughts I get stuck on one thing for hours. Last night I watched law and order episode before bed and kept replaying it over and over. It was so hard to get to the mindless place. I persicuted and finally did. Oh I so hope the meds work

Oh, man, these sleep issues are everywhere! I am so sorry. That 'mindless rest' state you describe? Sometimes I think it's worse than just no rest. My mind gets going and pretty soon, it can get out of control.
Not sure how long it's been since you took Ambien, but just a friendly reminder that people sometimes get disinhibited and sleep-email, sleep-text, sleep-call, sleep-cook (me), and sleep-travel/drive on Ambien sometimes. I was cooking on it and we had to stop it--just too dangerous for me.Best to take it and get in bed, in my view. I am sure you already know this. But I do hope it helps you sleep.
