> Wanting to sleep all the time is the pits! I just wanted the world to go away and stop interfering with my sleeping. Finally I added Provigil and Strattera to my combination and it really has helped.
See the pdoc on Friday and I may ask him about Strattera. I believe he briefly mentioned it to me last time but didn't see it as a viable option for me - but I'm not sure.
Have tried Provigil which worked wonders for a while, then we increased the dose, then it worked again, then stopped, then we increased the dose to the max, then it worked a while then stopped. Now I'm off of it, b/c it just completely stopped working for me. :-( Very frustrating!!!!!!

That sounds like a wonderful compromise! I go to work in the morning now and say to myself: "Self, do the most unpleasant task first (which is a toss-up b/c I pretty much hate everything I have to do), then you can either (a) take a brief nap or (b) play text twist on shockwave.com." I feel so completely guilty. But at least I seem to be getting SOMETHING done these days.
> Hey, if you sleep enough the week will fly by!
Veeeerrrryyyy true. I keep hoping I'll just go to sleep and wake up one day and all of the bad stuff will be behind me. Hasn't happened yet.
How are you?
