I took my 20 mil melatonin at 3:30. Then I took my 20 mil Geodon at 4. I took the 160 a bit later. I was still up by 5:30. I think I fell asleep at 6. I was so tired from all the Geodon and the melatonin I couldn’t actually eat a legit dinner. I was too tired to make oatmeal. I didn’t want my mom to make it for me. So I just grabbed a pack of protein peanut butter cups and ate those. Then I fell asleep until 11. I took another couple melatonin’s and grabbed a can of diet caffeine free Mountain Dew I didn’t open. Then I fell back asleep until about 3. I watched the AGT my mom had recorded for my from last night. I finished it around 4:40.

So then I just hung out on my phone. I noticed some more of my books are in at the library. I started another episode of my podcast. About 10 minutes ago I made my bed and cleared off the ramen bowl from yesterday’s lunch.

I feel ok though both physically and mentally and I’ve felt fine all night. Well there’s that pain that is going to make my surgery medically necessary. That was going on and it was frustrating. But besides that I’m fine.

I fell into a deep sleep but I'm still very tired.

All I want to do is lie in bed and sleep. It's the only place where my mind is quieter.

I fell asleep quickly after dinner. About 2 minutes after AGT had started. Which I had recorded anyways. I woke up sometime at night to finish my dinner from last night. Then I fell back asleep until about 5. I watched AGT on the TV in my room. It ended right around the time I get up in the morning to watch The Today Show in the family room.

I feel rested.

I got up early yesterday morning for aqua fitness and was tired last night. I read a bit like I always do but stopped quickly and fell asleep relatively quickly. Had dream of being in a house that was crowded with people and davenports. The davenports were all kinds and some with canopies. They were peoples bedrooms.

I fell asleep at 6. I woke up at midnight. I had some weird dream about being in a hotel, then in high school. Then in 3rd grade. There was a lot of food involved in my dreams since I went to bed without eating much.

I’ve been taking 30 milligrams of strong melatonin these last 2 nights. I’ve been sleeping pretty good. Not that that is a good idea. But at least I’m sleeping. This morning I slept in longer then my mom did. Which was still at 7. So maybe she just got up unusually early.

I am still sleeping for short periods & dreaming a lot, dreams that seem so real. I don't think I sleep long enough to go into deep sleep, & that's probably partly why I'm so tired all the time.

I’ve been up since 2. I didn’t really want to go back to sleep anyways because I wanted to watch the AGT from last night that my mom recorded. I listened to a bit of music then I turned on the TV at 3. I wanted to watch that so I could read all day today. This happened last Wednesday where I work up semi on purpose to watch AGT at 3AM.

I don’t feel like getting up right now even though it’s the time I’m usually up. I’ll get up and take a shower in half an hour or so.

I took a big med concoction at 7. Which knocked me out all the way until 2. Whoopi. I just listened to my music. I had something to drink but I forget what it was. Then I almost got my book done. I got up at my usual 6 time.

I’m hoping to sleep well tonight. I took my melatonin already but I didn’t take my 160 mil Geodon. I drank a mug of stress tea which is also making me drowsy.

I woke up at 3:45. I was excited at first that I woke up at a decent time but then I realized that 3:45 is about an hour early then I like to wake up. I tried listening to my music and going back to sleep. That didn’t work so I read about 3 sentences in my book before giving up and going back to the music and just staying up until 6:15.

Slept poorly last night. I didn't take anything to sleep (no ZzzQuil, no melatonin), but recently I've been sleeping well without taking anything. Last night I kept awakening and didn't even feel tired. I think I'm shaken up by my new creepy pdoc.

I fell asleep around 6:30 or 7. I woke up at 11:30, I think because I was hungry. So I ate a couple things and I took a few melatonin and I got back to sleep around 1. I woke up at about 4 and all that melatonin made me feel a bit queasy but I got over it the more I woke up.

I am so pissed that she treated you that way .. Like WTH??? I think you would be wise to go back on the ZzzQuil and Melatonin for right now...

My Sleep has been hit and miss. So much is going on over seas and then the devastating flood in my state. I had the news on last night and I had to turn it off. I need to be an Ostrich and stick my head in the sand for right now, got to push self care.

Tonight.. well its 5 am so no sleep for me at this point and that's okay. I took my night meds and I didnt even get an extended blink

Hope you all are getting some glorious sleep

I've slept well recently but for some reason up today at 4am. I just got approved for a new apartment and I've been really excited about it so that's part of the reason I can't sleep.

I slept last night but not well. I was at a B&B and I had a ton of homework to do. I didn’t know my professors name’s couldn’t find the syllabus. Couldn’t find my password to get into the campus computer system. Got help from my cousin the librarian. ( my password was, ability) had no place to write it down. Cut one of the B&B’s place holders down to a scrap placed it in my back pocket. My books, notes and supplies were all over the B&B. Finally got them together but couldn’t carry them all. Had three book reports to do and no time to read. Needed to do an oil painting….oh it was stressful. I woke up exhausted and way too early

I actually stayed up past 6:30. I watched the AGT results show in my bed. I fell asleep right before the judges choice although I knew it would be an obvious choice. I woke up at some time to turn off the TV. I don’t know what time it was or what was on. Then I fell asleep until my usual 4:15 time.

I woke up right before 2. I think I woke up because I was hungry. But I was glad I woke up early because I wanted to continue to read my book. I ate a couple things and I had a diet cherry Dr. Pepper. I read with the flashlight on my phone. I got kind of anxious and nauseated around 4 so I took a zofran and a Valium. I got out of bed 45 minutes ago and took a shower. Then I cleaned my room. I am tired but I fell asleep fast before 7 and I slept very deeply. So technically I got enough sleep.
