I have been feeling much better thanks to the SAD lamp. It's never worked this well but I've also never used it at these settings (15 min, 65%). It makes me edgy for a while afterward and I am sure that's why I've never done it this high before. But now I'm worried because I'm back to not being able to sleep. It's nearly 3:30 AM and I'm wide awake despite PRNs. It may be the light, it may be my continuing bronchitis making hard to get comfortable. I don't think my antibiotic is working. I'm giving it one more day before I contact my doctor. Thanks to the lamp I've not had a single nap during the entire time I've been sick. My pdoc doesn't want me napping right now but I think being sick would qualify as an exception if it weren't for the light. But that's fine. I'm just confused why I'm suddenly wide awake. Last night I slept 8 hours so maybe I'm paying for that and am not really allowed to have that much sleep?
I'm waiting to see if 25 mg of seroquel helps. Hope so.....
