> Glad things are working out with the Seroquel -- the modafinil is probably moderating it. I know at 800 mg, I stagger out of bed still. If I take it too late, i.e. stay up, like 1 or 2 am, it takes 2 half lives (12 hours) before I'm not completely free from its grasp, which means not until 2 in the afternoon. If I have to be somewhere early, I try (hard to resist staying up sometimes) to take it at 10-11, or at least midnight.
>Oh, I'm sure that the provigil helps a lot, especially in making poor Li able to get up during the 2 weeks of zombie mornings! Mostly though, the daytime fatigue that I experience is due to cymbalta. I waited many weeks for that to go away, and it NEVER did. so frustrating!
I also forgot to say that I am very good about taking my pm meds between 10 and 10:30. And yeah, I do need a good 8-9 hours of sleep. My husband sleeps an hour or two longer than I do, though, and he's "healthy" no meds or anything. Just a crazy wife lol.
Oooooops! I guess I'm up past my bedtime tonight...Oh well. Tomorrow is sunday am.
thanks for tidings Jay,
Are you taking seroquel these days? you can be my seroquel buddy. zzzZZZzzzZZZzzzzz!-Li
p.s. the best thing about taking seroquel at night is that even if you *wanted* to count sheep, you wouldn't be able to imagine them or say the numbers aloud in your head. No more hallucinations or intrusive flashback of nocturnal sheep. Zonk!
