dont know yet-
Ransom always pissed me off (actually good in ways)- but probably not that tonight. Maybe I will try to sleep....then probably wake up at 2am and stare at the stars.

Hey D,
I know how you feel. I was real ansy last night. Kept getting up. Had a little tremor issue. Could not lay still. There is my husband saying "now what are you getting up for?" I feel calmer now and I know it is a matter of time.
Well, enough about me. I certainly hope you will be feeling better soon. How about a funny movie? Sounds like you need a good laugh.

How about a good Cohen Brother's movie, like say... The Big Lebowski!!!! 
My personal favorite is Oh Brother... I've played that music on my guitar since I was in 6th grade... Saw the Down from the Mountain Tour and later met Ralph Stanley at a local bluegrass fest.

I can relate, last time I quit I didn't sleep for weeks except fo the occasional hour here and there, it drove me mad and I ended up drinking again.
The next time it happened I asked the Doc for just a few sleeping tablets and it was the best thing I coulda done. I didn;t want 30 or anything in case I got used to them so I just asked for like 5 or something.
Lack of sleep seriously affects us mentally, so if it carries on this is what I would advise.
What Zep song?
For funny stupid movie's, I quite like Dodgeball and Don't mess with the Zohan, which is about a stoopid as it gets, lol.

well i slept 5 hrs- a record!! one thing i havent mentioned is i cut my klonopin dose in half- not abusing, thats not me (at least drugs other than beer) - dr rxd- been on it around a year. but i didnt tell him i was cutting it- i just got tired of taking it. i think after looking it up that may be a contributor. feel like crap- flu or something similar feeling, i have dry heaves in the morning every day (like you want to know that- thought I would share). well its a cloudy day and I am going to go ahead and get that movie.not sure what movie yet.

I went for a long time with no sleep and I know where that can lead, with your mental condition. I don't like sleeping tablets and etc any more than you but self-medicating it wouldn't be helping either, if that is what is going on here.
Anyhow, keep checking in with us, your friends here - Sandy

Jeez, when I started getting myself off the benzos I was taking I went days without sleep...
Well, at this point, and especially if you got 5 hours sleep, maybe the worst is over... but no advice can be given.... So ... Be HONEST with your doc and involve him or her in this!!!
I second the Dodgeball recommendation

i dont think youre slow- I have a way of wording things that are coded- thats me being weird....thanks for posting. However for the record the sickness in the zep song is unrelated to my issue- just so the records clear.
