It's 2:35am and I'm still awake. About 2 hours ago I was crying and depressed and unable to sleep. Now I'm agitated, can't stop moving, I'm tossing and turning, jittery, etc. My head is pounding and I feel like I'm having a slight panic attack. I need to just fall asleep because my kids are gonna be up at 7am ish. Tomorrow is gonna suck.

I was gonna say yes but I'm not really sure. Kinda but not really? I know that doesn't really make aens: I guess I feel wired. I can't slow my brain or myself down. I have to be moving...doing something.

Holy ****. I finally fell asleep around 4:30. I thought I'd get 2.5-3 hours sleep. I finally woke up at 10:45 and I'm assuming my kids have been up since 7-8 but I couldn't hear anything from my toddlers room and run in and she was still in her crib and other than being wet she was fine. My 6 yr old was playing in and around my room for hours and I was completely out. Thank god I have an apt on Wednesday because I feel so guilty I could cry. I mean it's almost lunch time and I was completely out and only woke up because of a phone call. Something is not right.

I told my oldest next time when she wakes up to jump on my bed and yell at me to getup. I don't know why I have been such a heavy sleeper lately and barely able to drag myself out of bed but I've never slept this late. And I have been getting 7-9 hours sleep most nights.

I'm on Effexor and have been since March but I forget to take it every day, and some days can't remember if I took it or not which I'm sure doesn't help things.

Maybe you could get one of those daily pill minder cases and put a reminder in your phone. Sporadically taking meds is a recipe for disaster. I'm no expert but it sounds like you could be in a mixed state. (Manic and depressed at the same time) please tell your pdoc about this. Go easy on yourself though. You are doing battle with a dragon.
