Gingerale was sure my friend last night. The last two nights have been kind of hard on me. A bit nauseated and uncomfortable and couldn't get back to sleep once I woke up in the middle of the night. The uncomfortable feeling is like not being able to find a place for yourself, like you are jumping out of your skin. Anyone else ever feel like that at night. I fall asleep fine at around 8 or 9pm but then awaken at about 12-1:30am and can't get back to sleep easily. Perhaps I need to take the Ativan every night. Hate drugs and wish I didn't need to but will do what it takes I guess.
