This morning, I took my first dose of amphetamine prescribed yesterday by my psychiatrist to help me deal with excessive sleep requirement. So, basically the indication is akin to narcolepsy as a I do not suffer from ADHD.

I took at at 10AM. Later, at about 4PM, I still took a nap but it was a short nap. My amphetamine pill is short-acting and by 4PM was probably out of my system. Also, I took the smallest dose. Now I am going to bed for the night. It is 10:25PM. Tomorrow I will take amphetamine at 7AM when my first alarm rings. Usually, that alarm rings and I turn it off and set another, later alarm. Tomorrow I hope to actually get up with the help of the amphetamine. We will see if that hope materializes.

Clobetasol is working to control eczema. I no longer itch and scratch at night. I will be on it for 6 weeks. It is the strongest anti-eczema topical.

Good night!
