That's freaking terrible....Holy crap, Hillary. That's freaking terrible. You poor thing.<br /><br />I have trouble sleeping a lot. It's not so much the falling asleep usually, it's the staying asleep and then falling back to sleep part. Terrible. I was up from 2-4 this morning and that's not so unusual for me. I think it's stress.<br /><br />Anyway, the point of my ever-rambling post is that I have started taking 5-HTTP. It's fairly cool and seems to work fairly well without making me feel ultra groggy the next morning. Anyway, it's probably not strong enough for whatever is ailing you ... or me I guess but it has helped some.-Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15695248992142605013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2076532818291719012.post-77318261010547458882010-10-21T14:42:54.621-07:002010-10-21T14:42:54.621-07:00I'm so sorry this has been such a frustrating ...I'm so sorry this has been such a frustrating journey for you, babe, but I'm so! glad that you are feeling less "zombie" and more "better."Kerri Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122209877068112996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2076532818291719012.post-87945897361420248022010-10-21T12:27:03.534-07:002010-10-21T12:27:03.534-07:00So sorry you are going through this.

In the meantime, we have to stay motivated and not let the frustration paralyze us. (Easier said than done.) Keep searching for answers.
