Sedation required

first entry since sleep

So after a Ambien I was not able to take my rest, so I went on to take half a Xanax, a half of a Vicodin and another half of an Ambien. Sheesh. I finally got to sleep around 03:45. So much for jump-starting a better sleep schedule. I kept bumping my sleep watch ahead to accommodate my insomnia and in the morning I ended up waking earlier than when I set it. Here are my times:
Data A: 17:30
1 - 03:55
2 - 04:12
3 - 04:31
4 - 05:05
5 - 05:16
6 - 05:39
7 - 06:01
8 - 06:09
9 - 06:17
10 - 06:33
11 - 06:48
12 - 07:10
13 - 07:22
14 - 07:38
15 - 07:48
16 - 08:14
17 - 09:12 (crazy that this is my first good block of sleep! egads!)
18- 09:31 (this was the time I recall waking up on my own)
19 - 09:40
20 - 09:50
21 - 10:02
22 - 10:09

Crap. Total Crap.

Before the Ambien kicks in

It is now 00:30 and it has been about 15 minutes since I took the Ambien 10. I should be getting woozie very soon. Today I had a solid workout at the gym and ate very healthily for a change in an attempt to start laying the groundwork for generally healthy habits. I do feel a mite peckish, but I think I will have some SuperGreens power in water to tide me over for the night. I am hoping that this foundation will help me have better sleep tonight. I have set the watch for me to start monitoring at 00:45, have me wake up at 09:00 at the latest, with a 30 minute window. See you in the morning!
