I am wondering if it's the Zoloft that is causing this extreme insomnia. I'm not going to take it tonight, then will take the usual dose in the morning and see if switching to mornings helps my sleep. The Doxepin (for sleep) is useless, and even the Seroquel hasn't been too helpful.
I bought a set of bamboo sheets for my bed. They're...interesting. A satiny feel, and I can see how they would be excellent for summer heat. They stay cool. The only problem is that the sheets collect lint (and cat hair). That would probably keep me from buying another set. Kind-of amusing...I purchased the sheets from Amazon and in the photo they looked like a dark plum color. Well, in reality they are a screaming PURPLE  They look exactly like my high school graduation robe. And boy, they don't fade in the wash AT ALL!
So that's the story of my bamboo sheets 
Like almost everyone, I am uptight about the Ukraine situation. In my hometown I knew many Ukrainians. I am thinking of them today.
The wind, thankfully, has stopped, but the air is icy-cold. The type of cold that occurs in northern California really goes through you. It's biting.
I hope that Mountaindew checks in soon and I would love to hear from Moose! Where are you, Moose 
Love and peace all around.

Oh Im so sorry youre still struggling with insomnia, @
BethRags 
My sister had terrible insomnia on Sertraline/ Zoloft, she had to keep the dose down because she couldnt sleep on a higher dose. Do you take it in the morning? Its usually prescribed in this country in the morning becuase of the effect it can have on sleep.
I LOVE the sound of your purple bed sheets
Bamboo material is so nice, I really like my bamboo socks! But I can imagine it might accumulate lots of animal hair...
Im really upset about the whole situation in the Ukraine too and I wish for things to be very different. Its so scary and I hope people stay safe. Theres so much more that I could say but it would make little difference.
Sending lots of hugs your way
