This is the Midnight Club.
If you are in here posting between the hours of midnight and 5am, this is your chance to share why the heck you are awake, and why you are in here instead of in bed! op:
I'll start. I'm awake because the Lamictal won't let me sleep. Every night. I'm in here both because I was hoping for some advice on this (see "I think I'm afraid of the meds"), AND because reading everyone else's posts makes me feel like I have some company, even at this hour.
Maybe it would be more fun if I said I'm just walking in the door after a full night of clubbing. lol...
On the news this morning they are talking about insomnia saying that getting into bed and thinking I need to sleep I need to sleep only keeps you awake you need to get up tire yourself out and then you will sleep anyway
