Sleeplessness…n

I have always had a hard time sleeping, it is what you would call "My normal". Well, I started taking a couple of ‘simply sleep’, and OTC sleep aid by Tylenol a few weeks ago and for the most part, it really helped me sleep a lot and get 8 hours. My body has this insane ability to grow a tolerance to medication VERY fast… and drugs for that matter, so I asked Brian to pick me up some other otc sleep aid and told him to ask the pharmacist which one is the best.

He came home with Unisom. Oh my God, this pill is horrible. I took it last night at about 10pm and I started to feel drowsy about 10:30pm so I went off to bed. I could not sleep. I felt really confused and awake. So, I tossed and turned for about 2 hours. I finally fell asleep, but tossed all night.

At 5:30pm, a thunderstorm rolled into town and woke us and Holly up. I got up with Holly and turned on the cartoons. I then attempted to sleep again, which turned into random 10 minute naps.

So, at 8:30am, with a banging headache, I turned off all the lights, put holly in her room with her movie, closed the curtains and tried to sleep. Luckily, I got about 2 hours on and off.

I feel horrible today. Hungover kind of. I am going to do some reasearch on this otc sleep aid shit. I need ones that affect me like ‘simply sleep’ and not ‘unisom’.

In other news, there is no news. No news on me finding a job. Or loosing weight. Or anything really. Sorry.
