i feel like shit and my vision is still messed up... dxm is such a stupid drug lol. slept for 12 hrs but still tired as hell and no appetite... bleh.
Hello, all! How are you today? I'm...not so great. I'm feeling really burnt out today, and I'm not completely certain as to why - and I'm in a bunch of pain today even though I took my medicine like I'm supposed to. This is how I imagine most people feel in their post-MDMA depression (I've never felt like this) but I didn't even do MDMA last night, so I'm confused! I think it might be because I took too much Ambien to get to sleep, maybe...
Either way, I'm glad the weather's cooled off for you a bit, TOS! It's supposed to be raining/storming here tomorrow, so hopefully it'll do the same for me. These upper 90s are KILLING me! >< I'm jealous that you live so close to the beach and can start tanning, Laika. I actually have to avoid exposure to the sun because of my medications, so it makes me sad. I miss going to the beach!
I would guess it's the ambien. Z-drugs aren't a great choice for sleep IMO.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zopiclone#Carcinogenicity
It actually helps me better than any other sleep medicine I've been scripted, or tried OTC and natural remedies(from seroquel to tylenol PM to melatonin). I think it's just because I took more than usual that I feel like this, perhaps - I've not had this "hangover" before, even though I've been using it nightly for the past 3 months or so...
However, your citation is definitely cause for concern. My immune system is already semi-compromised by fibromyalgia, and a increased risk for cancer is never something to take lightly. I have an appointment with the doctor who prescribed me the Zolpidem on Friday, so I will have to have a long talk with her. Unfortunately, I don't know if I can go without it until then - I have really bad insomnia and cannot sleep without help from SOMETHING. Maybe I should just drink a lot to sedate myself for the next couple of nights. ><
Thanks for that information, though! I seriously had no idea and my doctor did not tell me, which is upsetting to say the least. Although I research any illegal drugs thoroughly before trying them, I guess I'm one of those idiots that is too trusting of doctors and the government and assume they wouldn't prescribe me/allow me to be prescribed something that is rather harmful. (I really should know better, considering how stupid I find drug prohibition to be. ^^;![]()
I tell people to use them for a last resort for sleeping. Save them for anxiety!
