Sorry you've been struggling with sleep @Iloveanimals25 - I struggled for many years without my CPAP. It's true you have to use it regularly or they will take it, but honestly, once you start using it you can't live without it. I hope you find a solution soon.

Thank you so much @Nammu and @Blueberrybook - it was so scary yesterday, and I still haven't heard anything from her. I really hope she doesn't call me and ask me to come to Virginia. I have such a hard time saying no and I know how desperate she is.

Today has been a really good day so far. Got up really early and watched cartoons on MeTV - they have a cartoon variety show at 7am with Toony the Tuna that is really funny. I wish it wasn't so early though!

Anyway, I have a very busy day planned. I am going to an AA meeting in a few minutes, coming back for a work interview, going to Adoration in the afternoon and going to try to squeeze some time at the gym. I feel really good for the day, and the CPAP says I got 7 hours sleep which is really good. A little fatigued, but I am so grateful to not be in the same place I was in during January and February - I was literally laying on my couch till 3pm every day because of the Risperdal Consta shot with absolutely no hope.

I felt like getting all dressed up today too. It's going to be another 70-degree day with lots of sun. I found a really pretty shirt in my closet that I never wore too. What a nice day for it. Hope everyone has a great day!

Thank you for your input. That was very kind. The thing is is I can't do the cpap. It makes me cough too much. I think it's bc I vape, only nicotine, weed makes me paranoid. I need a bipap. But they want you to do the cpap. I'm hoping they won't force the cpap on me and will let me do the bipap.

I've been busy organizing. Doing tons of laundry of clothes I'm keeping. I'm really glad. I lost another 6lbs! Just goes to show you how much meds can make your appetite increase from meds.

I hope everyone is well. Big hugs!
