Fizzwits can't sleep.

[Skul]

It's just part of the new urban slang.  Fizzy used it in the wrong context to probably mean she felt like she was beat up.

Was it shaved?? 

[Big Dog]

Yes.

That's gotta be some primo hootch!

Fizzy would do better to wash her stinky feet in it.*



*Assuming that fizzy smells her feet. She may need to use that odor eater for a maxi-pad.

Oh my.

She really needs to divorce him and go on with her life.

sleep disruption sucks

i haven't had a good night's sleep since tuesday and it's starting to really wear on me. can't get tired, intense dreams, waking up crying at least once and more tears when i get up. i wake up feeling like my heart has been smashed with a hammer.
 
i'm sure it's chemical in nature as i've been vaping rather than smoking for just over two weeks and have dialed back my already limited mj consumption. those have been the only changes i've made and it seems to have finally hit me hard. on top of that, i'm experiencing more physical discomfort than usual (i'm just a pup, but i've manged to smash the crap out of myself) and the emergency vicodin doesn't touch it. the ativan doesn't slow me down and tea at bedtime doesn't get me where i want to go. that discomfort, i'm sure, is a symptom rather than a cause.
 
it's a lonely hour and my eyes are tired, but nothing else is.

1. You have my sympathy

I struggle with sleep issues as well. Melotonin often helps me - I usually take it at about 7 or 8 pm and by the time I'm ready for bed, it seems it helps make me sleepy. Your situation sounds a lot worse than mine, but melatonin's a pretty cheap, OTC option so it might be worth a try.

3. it finally broke last night

had to call off work yesterday because i was such a mess, wound up napping off and on and then crashed for 12 hours. i had some melatonin in the cabinet, so i just washed one down with some peppermint tea to keep myself on track.
 
it's so hard when you can't sleep, it wears on you so badly.

2. I have had terrible sleep problems for months.

I'm in the midst of a deep, deep depression. My doctor recently switched me off Zoloft and to Remeron, which helps. But I have gained some weight in only a week, which won't help my depression. The sleep issues make the depression worse.

4. i'm sorry you're having such a rough go of it right now

med roulette sucks, so does trying to balance the benefits and side effects. i can only imagine how it's compounded by the sleep issues and the psychological effects of the weight gain. i really porked up over the holidays and wound up in tears when i tried to buy new pass.
 
i don't know that i can offer you any advice that hasn't already gone through your mind, but i wish you well. iirc, you do cross fit, right? is the exercise helping at all? getting out in the sun, even to just sit for a few minutes really helps me.

i really porked up over the holidays

i.e., from New Year's Day, 2008, through April Fool's Day, 2014.

Maybe she should be less angry.

Sorry for the duplicate, dane, sir.

<<<didn't mean to.

Fortunately for Fizzwits, the tree didn't grow very far from the apple.

7. hi, aA

i'm back on track now. the dreams are still there, just not waking me up as much. i have been taking my ativan before bed, so that might be a factor and my dad gave me a few of his sleeping pills as a fallback in case it starts up again.
 
i was short on sleep a lot as a kid between constant nightmares and a body clock that is incompatible with the normal world. the nightmares have gone away and my job is conducive to my natural sleep pattern, so i fare better now. it still pops up from time to time, though, especially in times of stress and this has been a major time of stress for me. but i'll keep trucking along, same as i ever have.
 
it's good to see you and i hope you are well

Surely Dad checked for interaction with her other pharmaceuticals before dispensing his own to her.  Unless she just sorta took 'em out of the cabinet while he wasn't looking.

Sorry for the duplicate, dane, sir.

No apology needed.  The way that the duplicates are so quickly merged here at CC is a joy to behold.

Edited to add this DU example.  The DUmmy posted about the same Detroit mob violence twice, but using different subject lines.

Man beaten to death outside Detroit gas station

You don't have to be white to be a victim of mob violence in Detroit

The older one does have a separate link to another beating, but why the second one mentioning just the one instance is a puzzler.

In any event, the 'clean up' in CC is appreciated, and makes for easier reading.
