Sleep Deprivation

[Flea]

today is my day

Uh oh, I see a norcal ban happening soon.

So I'm guessing this wouldn't be a good day to ask you to check your pms?

I am sleep deprived at least 2 days a week b/c of my crazy work schedule. I'm up for over 24 hours those days, sometimes almost 48 hours then I crash for at least 12 hours.

kingsfan, you work in the hospital?

but next time there won't be so much salt, and the chicken will get taken out sooner.

Actually ... no, it probably won't

My husband took Ambien for awhile. Never had a problem with it.

But for a natural way to fall asleep, take Melatonin 3mg. It will cost you maybe $10 for a jar of 90 or something. It takes me awhile to fall asleep and with Melatonin, I'm out in 15 minutes.

I can prescribe some Lunesta.

Sorry man.

Ever try Ambien? That stuff is great for nights when you can't sleep. Almost too good, so the docs won't give you too much of it.

I never have problems falling asleep at all. I just sometimes don't have enough time in the day to do stuff, so I stay up late.

Dont take Ambien. s people up permanently. An old schoolmate of mine (female) married some dude that has a sleeping disorder. He took Ambien regularly.

Last week, she found him in the bathroom with every item in the cupboards and on the counter all stuffed into the bathtub with hot water running. He was passed out on the floor naked. Strange to say the least.

She pulled him out, etc. Found some other wacky things (he must have gotten up in the middle of the night and went outside, he puked, broke some lawn flair stumbling back in, and broke the handle on the front door).

As of today, he is still in the hospital with a bleeding brain that doctors hope will be naturally absorbed. Hes 31 and newly married. He doesnt remember buying their house, he doesnt know who the president is, and everyone but his father frustrates him to no end because he so easily confused.

I've read articles about people taking Ambien--they get up in the middle of the night and eat every piece of food in the panty and never remember it. The only reason they start suspecting something is all the weight gain, which a lot of doctors assumed was an unpleasant side effect from taking the drug. That's some scary .

My son takes Melatonin every now and then when he has trouble falling asleep. He says it works great.

I've taken Melatonin to aid with sleep and always had the most vivid dreams.

Duh...all med students have their DEA number already!

It does make for some weird dreams sometimes.

[RashoFan]

how soon can they get their DEA # and start prescribing....after 1st year? 2nd? 3rd?
Some of the med students I have seen wouldn't be allowed to prescribed my cat pepcid....

[RashoFan]

Med Student...my bad ...sorry.

Every month or so, I stay up later and later, day by day (6am, 8am, etc) that I eventually have a "roll over" day where I don't go to sleep at all.

Today is the rollover day

So I'm just warning people that this is probably not a good day to mess around on the forum and piss me off. I'm going to try to stay up all day and go to sleep tonight at a reasonable hour.

Is it kinda like a leap year? Maybe an extra day at the end of the month?

[ShoogarBear]

Kori . . . go to sleep so we can trash this place.
