I spend plenty of time _tyring_ to sleep, and not so much time in the actual sleeping.  My body has forgotten what sleep, for long periods, is like.  The last time I was really sick, I slept almost 12 hours, and I woke up feeling even worse than I did before I went to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>When I get migraines, aside from all the other pain and problems, the sleeplessness is what kills me.  I run myself on a pretty tight schedule, and I can&#8217;t keep up when the little sleep I do get evaporates, and I&#8217;m left with the pain and problems of what denied me the sleep.  It shaprens th pain, and increases the side effects&#8217; hold on me.<\/p>\n<p>Today has been intersting &#8211; I have been floating between caffeine and painkillers &#8211; ups and downs.  When my migraines are this bad, I end up superdosing on Motrin and Dramamine, and then spiking no-doz with coffee.  I feel like everything is 6&#8243; away from where it really is.  I had too many meetings today to call the day &#8211; so instead i slip n slide through this alternateing pounding in my head\/free floating\/drowsiness\/manic energy that prevents me from resting my thumbs on my spacebar.<\/p>\n<p>At least today is Friday.<\/p>\n<p>I hope the rest of it slides away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is all about uppers and downers, when you are on the fringe.
