Definitely. I'll come onto this site and post some questions that I really want answers to NOW! And there are others times when I'm feeling rough that I really could use a talk with someone who's "been there". I'm so glad I found this site. I stumbled upon it when I was looking up info on Lamictal. I'm not sure what my schedule is going to be like today. We are going computer desk hunting. My dh has started back to school and I take the occasional online class, plus all the time I spend on psychobabble (sometimes I'm on here for a couple hours at a time, esp when I can't sleep. I try to read a bit and then go back up and try to sleep again but there are times I'm just wide awake. I've taken Ambien before but I have to have 6 hours before I need to get up or I have a drug hangover. I just heard about a new one...somnitol or something like that... it supposedly has a shorter duration so I could take it for those 3am wake-ups and still be able to get up when the alarm goes off. I am in the middle of a med change now and I don't want to complicate things by taking a sleep med. I figure it's short term. The last couple days I took a nap for an hour or two and it helped. I know you're not supposed to nap when you're having difficulty with insomnia, but I figured I was stuck with this problem for probably another week so I might as well try to get whatever rest I can. I see my pdoc Tues so I'll see what he has to say.
Mon and Tues eve are really crazy this week. Wed eve might be a good possibility. That's Dad night...the night hubby usually gets together for a guy night with his dad and brother. But it might also be Sister Night for me and my little sis. But we might still come online. She is having similar problems as me and I'm really trying to help get her through it. She asked if we could go on psychobabble when she spent the night on New Years. That's when I actually found the chat area and we went in there and there was no one there!
Well, hopefully some other folks will find this post too and we can get something going. If not, we'll start our own little gathering! :)
I hope you have a good day!
