>I take my dose every six hours, and that includes a dose right before bed as (believe it or not) it improves my sleep quality drastically where Halcion, Restoril, Ambien, Sonata, Placidyl, Nembutal, Tuinal, Seconal, Somnote, and Equanil have all failed miserably.
>Okay, are you referring to your subjective quality of sleep, or is this something that has been confirmed with a sleep study?
Unless a sleep study, with some comprehensive wires coming off your head, confirms that you're entering a much deeper sleep on amphetamines, then, uh, maybe the fact that you know what drug you're taking is altering the subjective result.
I know you want to feel you're correct. I am not trying to correct you. But as my current pdoc said-- with a very concerned look that seemed to recgonize a lot of the profound pain I've experienced through having talked with my former doc- "you don't have to be your own psychopharmacologist, steve!"
I know, everyone on this board is going to say I'm wrong for thinking it's healthy to obsess over our condition and meds on this board, but if you people think this is fun or helpful in anyway, why are you still on it?
Frankly I think this board merely encourages a lot of the obsessive thought tendancies I have. But again, this IS MY HUMBLE OPINION, and YOU ARE ALLOWED TO DISAGEE WITH ME, and I MAY VERY WELL BE WRONG. I'm just talking to myself here, and please let me do this, please. I don't mean to "correct" or discourage anyone's views here.
