Tired still(slrpnk.net)

Last year I discovered what 7/8h of sleep felt like thanks to horse adapted amounts of sleeping medication (120mg of Miamserine, 500mg of quetiapine, some THC).

Before that I was used to 5/6h on the regular and 1/3h when it got worse.

I don’t really understand how I have functionned all these years with that much sleep deprivation.

I’ve been on various types of sleep medication, although those sound like newer ones than when I was trying them years ago- every single one of them left me drowsy in the morning. Some for half the day. It was even worse than just not getting a full 8 hours.

And OTC stuff? Forget it. If I take some NyQuil, I basically will be unable to do much but sit there in a haze for the next 18 hours or so.

Yeah these are pretty newish. It might also not be what they’re called in your country.

My main issue with otc stuff is that it tended to make me drowsy but still unable to sleep …

I’ll talk to my neurologist about them next time I see her. Thanks.
