After her first child my mom went to the doc. and told him she was tired and had to drink coffee to stay awake - the doc asked how much and she said 22 cups a day!!!!!!!!! Many years later she took a small dose of dexedrine to stay awake, but it was a real problem as you know! She was such a grouch in the mornings.

My problem is the opposite sometimes I stay up for 48 and then sleep for 20. what a mess. I am trying to get myself back in order, part of the problem is no job and empty nest.

Hope you can find a med. to work on this for you.
