But sometimes you find something that puts you right in the middle, and there's nothing wrong at all.
So, the sleepy-eyed neurologist whose circles matched mine put me on an interesting drug Thursday. Please, no names...the last thing I need are my friends Googling that shit and finding out what it is. I've been on it for two days straight, and though it's too early to feel major differences, I did get five hours of uninterrupted sleep last night. That is HUGE for me. Y'all know how little I sleep, and it helped that I didn't have to get up for work until 6:30 this morning rather than the obscene time of 3:30 which is my norm.
It takes a bit to shake off this groggy feeling I'm experiencing for the first time, but it has been noted that I wasn't quite my frenzied self yesterday, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is something that will work for me in the long-term.
I even promised the doctor and others that I would follow the rules to a T, and that means no drinking or other substances while I'm on this. At least not for the first couple of weeks. Hah! Sure, I can have a glass of wine or a beer, but I promised I wouldn't be the hardcore pAArtier I normally am.
I'm still a little concerned that this pill will work but I won't like how it makes me feel, and therefore stop taking it. You hear it all the time. Sure, it worked...but it made me feel horrible. So far I haven't experienced any of those sensations, but I'm also only my third day. I think my brain chemicals are re-organizing. I'm being reset, so to speak. And hopefully in a positive way.
For now, the White Knight still talks backwards, but I'm beginning to understand what he's saying.
