Been taking 10mg. melatonin every night. So far, so good. Been falling/staying asleep easily.

Do you notice a difference in your appetite while taking the melatonin? I noticed on the nights I took it I’d be really hungry the next day. But the nights I didn’t take it my appetite was fine. Then when I went off it for good after Thanksgiving that’s when I started to notice legit progress in my weight loss. Maybe I’m just being weird though.

Good question. I can't even tell if any other meds cause me to be hungry because the Seroquel (even a tiny dose) makes me want to eat everything I can shovel into my mouth. I hope to be able to stop Seroquel by spring.

Fell asleep pretty easily because seroquel at about 10ish, but it's almost 1AM and I'm up probably for the night/morning.

I was reading last night in bed. I didn’t finish the book and fall asleep until 9. I slept right until 5:30. I took my Geodon and fell back asleep until 7:15. The new bed seems to be helping a lot. I hope my good sleep continues.

I shouldn’t have said that in the last post. I fell asleep fast last night while looking at new therapists in the town I’m moving to. The whole process of finding a new one just stresses me out emotionally and physically. Then I woke up at 1:30. Better than 11 but still early. I took my Geodon at 1:30 and I fell back asleep around 2:30 and woke up at 6. So it still wasn’t the 4 hours I had been been up for before But taking my Geodon when I wake up is the only thing that makes it possible to fall back asleep. So by 10AM I was feeling my usual anxious self because of the med situation. When I take it even at 3:30AM I feel fine all day.

Thanks for asking. Last night was good...you know how it is...some nights not too bad, other nights anything but great. One of these days I'm just gonna stay in bed and sleep all day.

With the new bed and all the crap I took I slept pretty good. I woke up at 1:15 because I wanted some pizza from dinner last night that I had slept through. There were about 4 pieces left. I don’t get why my mom and my brother have to inhale a pizza meant for 4-5 people. I had 2 pieces and then went back to bed until 5:30. I feel ok but my mouth tastes like cotton and I have a slight headache and I want a Coke just for the caffeine.

I slept very good last night. That melatonin I took on the 24th did a number on my appetite for 2 days. I was wondering if that was the case when I started losing weight right after I stopped the melatonin. Now I know to really not take it anymore.

Well, I did a little better tonight. I was told to take 30mg temazepam every night until I chat with my pnurse next week so that's what I did. Four hours, from 11 to 3.

Holy ****, I fell asleep around 10:30, woke up at 1, went back to bed about half an hour later, and got up at 4! Best night of sleep ever!!!!!
Only thing is I'm gonna run out of temazepam before my pnurse appointment next week and it's something I have to fight for because insurance sucks.

I slept good last night. I fell asleep around 8 and I didn’t wake up until 5:30 and I took my Geodon and then I went back to sleep until 7. I’m still tired for some reason. Even though I got more sleep then I usually do.
