Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 So just call me lame-brain....maybe I should have made that my user name here. I am having some difficulty keeping up with the manner in which this forum lists the postings. It is quite embarrassing, I know. But this forum is a bit different than what I was used to. Where each thread is kept with the replies that are specifically addressed to that post. I realize that my short term memory loss isn't helping any and maybe that isn't an issue for others, losing your place in life, over and over again throughout the day ? Today I tried and tried to wake up all day. I thought each time that I was making progress, only to succumb back into the darkness within minutes. My computer is on a small table that has the monitor cantalevered over the arm of my recliner. I fall asleep more in this recliner than I do anywhere else, even the bed. I guess I've just made surfing on the web too, too comfortable. I woke this morning at 9:00am then again at 12:30pm. I don't ever remember falling back to sleep, but was getting really pissed to find myself waking up at 3:30pm. Each of the times that I woke I took a couple more of the medication prescribed to stimulate my brain. Most people know it by the adhd that it is often prescribed for, but I have to take adderall in much higher doses. It would be worth it if I kept me awake. I hate it when I know that I've taken hundreds of mgs and still fall asleep within minutes. I literally hate these times. It has been like this for three days now, which usually is indicative of something going wrong.It is one big fight to try and stay awake, usually I lose. I see the specialist tomorrow, he wants to hospitalize me for a few days, so I may not get back here till the weekend. I just wondered if anyone else got lost in this format that we post? Are there any tricks that can be used to help myself keep track of things? Thank you for any ideas...... Peg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
