have not written much mostly becuase nothing to say. and noone hardly responds.so don't know if i should keep on posting? somedays it helps to get it all out and others it just makes it all the more real. i do know that some peole just read and not write. but i like the feed back i gues thats why i write. ineed some sort of confermation that my feelings are not crazy or just mine alone. not angry just talking. not much sleep lately except during the day. so no wonder not tired at night. guess thats a sigh of depression sleeping all the time. hubby can'tunderstand why i am alway so tired, try to explain meds make me so tired. i'm on alot of meds and just added a new one lyrica. have not started it yet going to start it tonight. any feed back on what to expect? well we have company in town for a little visit trying to stop smoking but so hard. so cranky. any thoughts feel free.

Hey there. My husband doesn't understand when I get tired, too. It certainly can be from the meds, also depression. Lately I've been exhausted, too and have been napping in the evenings and find it hard to sleep at night. I have not heard of that new med you're taking, Lyrica. I went to my pdoc today and she started me on Prozac. I'm wating for it to get filled at the moment. I've taken it in the past. My husband is leary about it. He doesn't like me on so many meds. Good luck with trying to stop smoking. I did it. It's been 5 years now. Enjoy your company.

I haven't written or responded much as I'm not sure I have much to say either...I'm also being careful not to trigger myself...so I'm staying away from the dreaded red "x".

I can understand frustration with responses...I would keep posting and responding when you feel like it. Try not to worry so much about how many reads or responses. I've stopped looking at that seems to help.

I went home afterwork and got out of my dress clothes climbed into bed and two hours later woke up...then couldn't sleep during the normal hours...so I can related to the not much sleep.

I'm not sure that anyone can really understand your exact situation regarding sleep and tiredness, and meds...I'm guessing PC probably understands it most...Only suggestion is to leave out information regarding meds and depression, etc where he can see them. He might just on curosity read them...If you try to force it he probably won't...at least I tend to be that way lately

Hi Onyx,

I started Lyrica a couple weeks ago for treatment of my nueropathy. It does help the pain, but it made me very sleepy for a few days. I took it with my other meds and probably should have staggered them.

Please keep writing. I don't post often, but I try to keep up with everyone here by reading. I do care.

Hugs,

Ja

I had quit for 4 yrs and had started over again, what a moron I was for doing that.
Well it's 2yrs since I had a smoke, cause I had "re-quit" in July of 2005, on the 19th to be exact, the day I had major corrective nasal surgery.
Hang in there, and don't give up trying, if you slip up, get back on track. It's helpful to come here and post/pm/and/or chat during the time you'd be having a smoke, I know it helped me, but then again everyone is different. Keep the faith.

I haven't been around much lately, I'm going through a "blah" time right now, soooooooooo, I'm not too chatty.
When I get like this, it has nothing to do with PC or even with many of the people in my 3D world, it's just sort of a "mental moment(s) of suspended animation", it's a comfort from experience to know it shall pass.
Take care now, and keep the faith within yourself.

I do understand, when my/our life is in a void, ur down. You post up, let it all go and wait. Sometimes its like God, on his time ur thoughts will be answered. Sometimes by posting I've found I've anserwed my on question.
Have to admit I check PC three or four times a day to c whats going on and who's feelin bad.

t/c Shelly..........

my friend,, we're here, as u can tell...................

thank you january, tucker, directions and darkeyes. it makes me feel better knowing i'm not alone. no real friends here. i have a neigbor friend but much drama. i don't really need that. i know you are all there for me even when you don't write thank you. well today is great company left felt like a prisioner in my own house. now i'm free to yell at kids or swear if need be. how funny my biggest thing to hide from family that i yell and swear a few time a day. not perfect by any means or stretch of the imagination. hubby at work so outside with the girls trying to let them getall thier crazy energy out. THANKS AGAIN MY LOVE TO YOU ALL.

I think your awesome Onyx....Im glad you post.
Your right...we need a place to come where others understand...Its good to feel accepted and feel as though theres a sounding board out there,a place for support.
As for the smoking quit for 7 years and in December started again....just another thing to kick my *** for.
Keep posting ......I'll see you out there.
