Day 3 - 4:01 PM
Getting that extra 4 hours of sleep was a good move. The Xanax didn't leave me too fuzzy and I felt pretty clear headed for the first hour of the day. However, I took the Zoloft at about 2:30 and now I feel kind of remote. It is hard to describe. I was trying to write a description of something and I was really struggling. Normally I am really good at presenting something in words but I couldn't get anywhere. I am thinking this is a result of the meds. It is as I am not supposed to really be noticing things for at least a few weeks and it is only the forth dose I have taken. I am going to talk to the doctor tomorrow (Monday) and see what she thinks. I am also going to see what she thinks of Welbutrin since they claim to have less occurances of sexual side effects.
Day 3 - 8:44 AM
I was not getting to sleep, so at about 12:50 AM I took an Ambien (10 mg) and I slept without waking as far as I could tell until the sun woke me at around 8:36 AM. I feel for the first time in over a week that I have gotten a full nights sleep. I had dreams and everything. Of course, I still am really tired and wanted to sleep longer, but my mind was already whirring so that wasn't happening. I then did something I hope I don't regret - I took .5 Xanax and I am going to go see if I can get another 4 hours. I really need to try and catch up for the coming week.
Day 2 - 11:58 PM
Time for bed. I think I might be able to get sleep now without taking anything. Last night a little alcohol before the game took the edge of painful somnambulistic sleep deprivation and I actually had a great night out. However, my intentions of coming home and going to be early turned into an impromptu party at my place and staying up until about 5. It was actually good as I was able to fall asleep with no assistance. I woke up early with a bad headache from excessive exuberance and had restless down and mostly up sleep through the late morning. Today was really lazy as we farted around but it was fine. I am finding the Zoloft is having some very unwanted sexually related side effects and while C doesn't seem to mind them, I haven't felt any culminating satisfaction since I started taking the stuff. If that keeps up then I don't think I it is a viable option for me. It would be like sleeping and never dreaming.
