Oh dear, Allyson. I hope you get relief.
I have been up since 2 am (now 8 am here) because I woke up with back pain and had accidentally left my advil at work. So I left my house at 5:20, got here early, and have taken advil. Now to wait for it to kick in all the way.
I hope relief and blissful sleep has happened for ita and Allyson. Quick relief for you, Sophia.
I got up at 6 to let the dog out, but went back to bed until 8. Wanna go back.
I woke up after 6. I'm waiting until 9 when the psych doctor's office opens, because I screwed up and need my Celexa renewed because I ran out. I don't have bad effects from going 'cold turkey' but getting back on it gives me the daytime nap attacks.
(Not bouts of narcolepsy, just the urge and ability to go lie down and snooze when I should be up and about.)
I am feeling much better, but I think when I hurt my back in November and did not go to the doctor, I may have made a mistake, because I have to take advil in the middle of the night almost every night now!
Theo- you have completely the opposite Celexa experience from me! If I am even 2 or 3 hours late taking it, I can totally feel it, and cold turkey is a recipe for disaster in about 24 hours. I can;t think, I have a headache, my face feels numbs, and I have these weird electrical brain zaps. When I take it, however, I can't sleep at night unless I take it in the am.
Laura has unintentially earwormed me with the Baha men.
Sophia, you might need to look into a new mattress.
My sleep was by no means smooth or uninterrupted, but I did have a dream that featured Michael Vartan and warm goat cheese potato salad. So it was okay.
I hope Allyson is okay. I seee people in their PJs at the ER all the time.
I was sort of afraid of that! I don't want to buy a new mattress. Being that this is only the second mattress I have had in my lifetime, however, it is probably a good idea.
I am also very excited because in 1 hour a coworker is bringing in KITTENS!
Sorry, msbelle. But now you gave me the earworm. I have news on so it will change to Thriller soon.
Michael Vartan and warm goat cheese potato salad is dream win.
Maybe you can get a memory foam topper for the mattress, Sophia.
Before you try a new $$$ mattress, Sophia, you could try a chiropractor first -- I'm serious that they're just amazing for back problems, and they'll cost a whole lot less, too.
Sad sad quote from a Michael Jackson retrospective article in the LA Times:
"I hate to admit it, but I feel strange around everyday people," he said on another occasion. "See, my whole life has been onstage, and the impression I get of people is applause, standing ovations and running after you. In a crowd, I'm afraid. Onstage, I feel safe. If I could, I would sleep on the stage. I'm serious."
