Trying to Relax

I’ve been ornery since being up for 36 hours. I’ve been sleeping more than usual. Stephanie is worried that I’m sick or depressed or both. The possibility exists of course but one of my psych meds is a mood stabilizer and has been effective against falling too low for several years. I’ve also got an antianxiety med. If I take enough of those then I feel relaxed but it is an illusion. My antipsychotic med usually helps me sleep but when it fails like it did a few days ago, it lets out all sorts of emotional demons.

    I am sorry you are going through this, Mark. Did you have red hair? People with red hair metabolize drugs differently, from my experience and what I have read. Regardless, everyone is different.

      I was heavily intoxicated and resisted sleep until I had come down and for the rest of the day to try to readjust my sleep cycle. I was apparently oblivious to this comment and only just now realized I’d never responded. I’m too old to party like I did in my twenties. LoL
