Good morning. Heading to work in a few hours. Only slept 4 hours. Better than nothing I guess. It’s gonna be a long day. I won’t get home from work till around 4pm and I head there around 5:30am. I get to sleep in tomorrow if they don’t ask me to come in , I’m not scheduled to go in tomorrow but they might need me to come in since I took yesterday off , we’ll see. Anyway, after I get home I’m gonna practice violin then play some games and watch shows with my bf.

Otherwise I need to get back on 200mg of Thorazine cause I can’t sleep on 100mg, clearly. So I’m gonna call my doctor on Monday and have him refill the 200mg. In the meantime I’ll just take two 100mg tablets at night. I was gonna take two last night but I only took one because I was afraid I wouldn’t wake up on time. Is my body like addicted to it or something. It’s like I’m incapable of sleep without 200mg or more. Anything less than that and I don’t sleep at all for 40 hours at a time or I get 2-4 hours of light sleep at most. It doesn’t really matter what med it is it just seems I need a sedating AP at night otherwise sleep doesn’t happen. Nothing else helps, not klonopin, propranolol, I’ve taken sleep meds in the past like ambien and it never helped. Seroquel at 600mg worked good for sleep too but I switched to Thorazine because of the weight gain on the seroquel. Thorazine works good. But I have to take at least 200mg. Used to be on 400mg. But that was too much. 200mg seems to be the perfect amount for me.
