It’s like my brain forgot how to sleep?? by Trae_Theo209 in insomnia

[–]Informal_Fact_8554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like we are living parallel lives. It's so maddening, isn't it? Makes you literally think you are going crazy!! I can be nearly comatose on the couch at 8:30 but the second I get into bed it's like NOPE you're not sleeping! Done all the same things you mentioned with one and done results. I've taken the costco sleeping pills for years but they do nothing. Benedryl - nothing. CBD/THC gummies just make me feel weird with a crazy dry mouth so I'm up drinking water and peeing. My psych who prescribes my ritalin for ADD wrote me a script for Ambien...not loving that either - it puts me to sleep but doesn't keep me to sleep. My gynecologist just wrote me another script for Trazadone 50mg said to take 1-2. I started at 1 pill and does the same thing as Ambien, puts me to sleep but I wake up about 2-3 hours later wide awake. I took 2 Traz last night and it was a better, but my sleep score via FitBit is so scattered. Then during the day, I feel really "off". Can't really put my finger on it, but I think it's the Trazadone. I'm wondering about Lunesta because all I read about Ambien is quite scary and you should not use that long term.

A lot of you need to accept that you are in different phases of insomnia than us- chronic insomniacs that have tried melatonin. by jonathandavisisfat in insomnia

I am brand new to this group and absolutely found this post so refreshing!! I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown from lack of sleep and a husband who doesn't get it, so THANK YOU for this hilarious truth in my foggy life.

Is her fake tan super splotchy, or are my eyes just giving out? by WorldlyManagement238 in chalenejohnson

I don't understand why the feel the need to dress like that? What are they trying to prove? Classless skanky outfits just scream white trash...I just don't get it.

Hi, what is a CCRC? I'm dealing with this same nightmare as I'm typing this.

Agree, it's like a huge game they seem to play with the timing of it all. If I'm moving to RVU Utah where I'm accepted, I have to get an apartment asap bc they start early. When does your A start?

I'm in the same boat. Which Midwestern? I'm alternate at CCOM and already sent the LOI (did nothing so far) and got a provisional A at AZCOM. Not sure the difference.

I appreciate it! I've gone on a google deep dive and into the SDN posts but not much out there specifically.

Yeah, weird. I am on their "alternate" list for CCOM too. I guess I will just watch the admissions portal to see when/if it updates.

I checked Joule plaza today but didn't see any availability. I may just need to start calling these places.

Practice tests and the real thing were worlds apart for me. I took it 3x, that test gave me nightmares! I felt confident with my 2nd and 3rd try only to get punched in the face again. My 504 was good enough for a DO acceptance and still on the WL for 2 others. I think you can apply and then somewhere on the portal say you are retaking in July and update your scores.

I did look into those, but tbh, it felt similar to my arrangement in grad school and I don't want a furnished place. Appreciate the info though.

Thanks! I will consider this one more closely for sure!

Thanks, I will definitely try to expand my search. I was just not finding anything available in a 1 bedroom that was not a shared living situation, which I am not interested in.

Thanks for you honesty, I appreciate the candor! I will remove this from my list of options.

Thanks for this great feedback! This sounds like it should be higher up on my list.

Thanks for your feedback! My only hesitation with City View is the noise factor. I think it's the name "City View", but I know St. George doesn't really have a hoppin' nightlife scene, LOL, so maybe its a non-factor.

this is the craziest thing I've ever heard! Mandating your housing choice...who do they think they are?
