Sleep

[darkfyre_muse]

So for the last several months I have been having a lot of problems getting quality sleep. I was going to bed far too late most nights. (2-3ish) Then waking at 5 or 6 and being unable to fall back to sleep for hours. When I went to the new pdoc Monday I explained this and was expecting her to give me a script for a sleep aid. She didn't. She rightly blamed it on the uncontrolled depression that the Lamictal was only partially treating. I am now on 5mg Abilify. I have reservations about it in the long term. But for the next 6 weeks? Fuck yea! I have had better, longer uninterrupted sleep, with fewer disturbing dreams/nightmares, in the last week than anytime in the last 6 months. (Not counting marathin naps due to utter exhaustion and that one time where a certain someone broke my brain in the best possible way)

Here's to figuring things out.
