Dear Jon:
Boy do I understand...I have going throgh that for 2 months now. It has, for me, an insidious onset. First I start to go to sleep 1 hour later, then 2 then 3...until I can only fall asleep at 6:00 a.m. The exact time I would normally rise for work. The consequences need not be explained. On the weekends I go to sleep at 6:00 a.m. and rise at 10:00 a.m. Great! 4 lousy hours. Here's the killer, last weekend I stayed up all day Sat. and Sun. trying to restore the normal cycle. But its smarter than I for as I attempted to go to sleep at 10:00 P.M. Sunday...I didn't get tired until 6:00 a.m. Huh? Well, I didn't get to work that day and here I am again.
I don't have any insight to this problem except to say my cycle returns when it wants to. I don't take the meds si I an unable to comment here. Rather, I just wanted to offer support and let you know that you are not alone.
warmest personal regards,
David PLease excuse any typos...can't focus
