Hope you feel better soon @Sometimes psychotic HUGS Kit

I was awake looking at all the intense hallucinations around my room. I've never had visual hallucinations that much in my life. I don't remember much of what I saw cuz I guess I was still waking up and then went into a horrifying sleep paraylsis that lasted about half an hour.

It was so terrifying but I'm used to terrifying things since my mad psychosis on the bad trip. I find it interesting more than anything.

My coworker is going to Panda Express and is going to get me teriyaki chicken. Mmm. I had brought lunch but I get so sick of sandwiches that I jumped at the chance of getting something different for work. What a nice coworker. Too bad after Friday she won't work here anymore (retiring).

Okay. Tubs fixed. Maintenance is going to put an access panel in where the hole is tomorrow so in the future they have easy access if there's ever a problem again instead of having to cut another hole. Then he's shampooing my carpets and putting in a new smoke detector. They're done for today and everything else will be completely done by Thursday at the latest.

I'm sleeping half the day on my new med dosage.

I tried setting an alarm but I sleep through it. I think the extra sleep is making me feel rundown and lethargic even more.

Idk what to do.

You're probably adjusting to the change, I've had that happen with meds sometimes and after awhile it usually goes away. If not be sure to mention it to your doctor

Thank you, I will. I'm just worried because I gotta do 40 hours at work next week and I have to get up at 8am all week. I've been practicing this week but I just cant get up early.

Change your alarm ringtone to something more irritating and loud...or get one of those alarms that won’t stop until you do a puzzle or whatever. Or put your phone across the room if you’re turning it off that way you need to stand up to shut it off.

I use an actual alarm clock instead of my phone because it's louder, more annoying, and I've never slept through it. I have one that is particularly tricky to turn off so by the time I have it turned off in the morning I'm awake enough to make myself get out of bed. My room is kind of small so I can't really put it anywhere I would have to walk to but having a tricky one to turn off that is loud has worked for me.

The thing is some of these meds make me sleep so deep tho. I will try a loud ringtone tho.

I like innovasian frozen chicken better than panda express. They have general tsos, orange chicken, and sweet and sour, but I couldn't find it for some reason last time I went shopping
