I feel ridiculously tired. I’m not sure if it’s the Buspar or lack of sleep. I’m mad because my husband will not let me sleep. I have been quite irritable and snapping at everyone today. My husband wants me to list stuff on ebay tonight, and I don’t feel like it. He keeps bugging me [...]

This morning I woke up with pain all over my body. Ibuprofen helps, but when it wears off, the pain comes back.
I am not sleeping well. I am on 300mg of Trazodone right now, and it’s not working.
I really feel terrible. I am tired and in pain and working a lot at a job that [...]

I’ve been away for a while, because I didn’t have internet. I finally got back online this month. I have wireless. It’s not as good as cable or DSL but it’s better than dialup.
Last month I ran out of Invega on a weekend and realized I felt better without it, so I decided not to [...]

It either has to do with medication or depression, I am not sure which. My doctor decreased my medication because of these symptoms. I wanted to [...]

A friend of mine whom I hadn’t seen for a while said she thinks the Invega is giving me a “flat effect”, that something is missing, and I’m not displaying normal emotions. I told her I’m depressed.
So is it a flat effect from the Invega, or is it depression? I’ll talk to my doctor about [...]

Well it’s official – I hate my job. I have to take clients to out-of-town appointments where I am not familiar, and last week I backed into a car with the company van. I had turned on the wrong road and there was no where to turn around, so I had to back out, and [...]

The trazodone hasn’t been working. I take 50 mg before I go to bed and then another 50 when I wake up around midnight. Then I start waking up again at 3am and it never stops.
I ran out of trazadone yesterday so last night I took Ativan and that was much better. I slept soundly [...]

Well yesterday that woman who hit me called me and yelled at me over the phone. I was trying to get her insurance information and give her mine but she got me so upset I hung up on her and threw my phone. The phone fell apart, but my son put it back together for [...]
