I was scared spitless when I had my test. I was so scared/nervous I messed up twice. He said turn right I turned left, he said left I went right. I knew he had to think I was an idiot. But at the end he told me that as nervous and scared as I was he'd seen much worse. And that despite turning the wrong way twice I did just fine and I passed. I had built it up in my mind into this huge thing and then it was over and it was fine.

I'm sure you'll pass but more practice never hurt Do you have to go to driving school or can you have a friend or relative take you out to some deserted roads and practice?

I'm taking lessons. I used to drive. Didn't for 19 yrs, lol. Just didn't have the money to. I have some money to buy a car so it's like I'm a brand new driver! I've been through town. I've had 3 lessons so far. Taking another one tomorrow. Then hopefully my sister will take me out driving. I get myself worked up over the test tho. Thanks for easing my mind.

I always wake up around 2am and 4am no matter what... I just have too much on my mind. I'm always thinking about too many things when I go to bed... usually anxious thoughts.

I actually went to bed at 2:10am today with too much on my mind

Are you still taking Seroquel to sleep? That stuff knocks me on my @ss when I take it.

Why do car dealerships seem like zones of timelessness? Waiting "20" minutes for my inspection to be done has turned into an hour so far.

Tired today. Forgot to take my ADD med so pretty much brain dead. Every time I think the med isn't doing anything then I forget to take it and see how much it really does do.

How are you doing?

Yeah because of meds I can't remember the last time I drank. Plus hubby can't drink, even one can make him mean, so I just stay away but I miss it. No need to be sorry about the meds. I brainfarted but at least I will sleep the sleep of the dead when I do go to bed. There's always an upside

Are you like me and prefer to sleep during the day or do you have insomnia? If you don't mind me asking

I have insomnia bad. Have to take meds to sleep. Used to be on 15 mgs of zyprexa for sleep. But gained 40 lbs. I've lost 30 of it but need to lose more. Are you in the states?
Thanks for this!

Yupper. Indianapolis, IN. Seroquel made me gain weight and so did a few others I've been on. Fortunately the Concerta seems to make the Abilify weight neutral for me. Which is good because I can't put on anymore weight. Way to go on losing 30. Too bad it's not as easy to take it off as it is to put it on.

I have insomnia normally but it's been even worse lately because of bad pain from when I broke my hip. Of course the docs won't give me a decent pain killer.

I haven't gotten back into a proper sleep rhythm since spending last week in hospital due to a kidney infection. Those places are just doomed for sleep with nurses prodding and buzzers going off at all hours.
