One of those weeks...

[CAJ1]

I'm feeling really crap this week. I don't know why, I felt like crying earlier and yesterday I was really annoyed at everything. I had reflexology at the weekend - is this what is making me feel like this? The only other thing I can think of is I am taking sleeping tablets but they don't say anything about feeling emotional as a side effect.

[4getmenot]

why are you taking sleeping tablets? Surely something is up already

[CAJ1]

I need a good nights sleep! I'm always grinding my teeth or waking up and then feel tired during the day. The pack says you feel more rested in the morning as you have a deeper sleep but I have to say they don't seem to be working!

we all get days wekks like that,step-son had a really wobbly dat yesterday.SAD is starting up for us all.are you able to give the pills a break for a while & see if that helps

[CAJ1]

I don't think I get SAD, I've always been ok during winter. I've only taken them for 2 nights but I won't take any tonight and see how I feel tomorrow.

[4getmenot]

but there must be an underlying problem as to why you cant have a good sleep

[petal54]

do go back to your doc for advice,did think after i'd posted,(had urgent need for little room)that you'd not been on tabs long. I 've taken anti whatzitz for ages but they do take a while to work,not sure on the sleepers,do try 1 night without,but as said do check with the dosorry to waffle,not just my bum with the prob

[CAJ1]

My doctor says I don't sleep properly and grind my teeth as it is my sub-concious trying to deal with things I haven't dealt with (I know what they are but don't see any way of dealing with them other than trying to move forward with my life). Doc was no good and only prescribed anti-depressants as a way of dealing with it last year. I stopped taking them after a few months as they were doing nothing.

so maybe you are just Subconsciously having one of those weeks. I think all people get like it, where they are just down but cant put their finger on why

[CAJ1]

Maybe thats all it is 4get. I just wish I was able to give myself a shake and feel better!

[4getmenot]

poke in the eye is much better

[CAJ1]

I'll try it out, any other suggestions are more than welcome! Thanks 4get and petal :o)

Are the sleeping tablets ones that have been prescribed by your GP? If so then there would quite likely be side effects,they are quite strong narcotics afterall.If they are the herbal ones you buy in the chemist then it probably is just "one of those weeks".

[petal54]

hope all improves for you soon!!

[4getmenot]

or just try walking like this for a while

[CAJ1]

No Daffy, they are Nytol ones that I brought in Boots from behind the counter, they aren't herbal ones though.

[CAJ1]

lol, thanks 4get :o) You'll have me laughing again in no time! see already i feel a bit better, maybe I will do a new thread called make me laugh and by the end of the afternoon I'll be fine!

[4getmenot]

See doesn�t cost to crack a smile :-) When on hols whilst walking through villa reception a lady was on her camcorder saying �this is the reception, this is the gym, I waited behind her for her to stop filming� and she took so long so I passed in front with my friend and did that same silly walk. :-)

[CAJ1]

That was a laugh this time instead of a smile! It must just be one of those weeks and I needed someone to spend 5 minutes to cheer me up - thanks so much 4get - I now have a vision of what I imagine you to look like parading around like that lol :D

[4getmenot]

Anytime caj sometimes its just nice to know that someone knows we exist. I�d happily spend 5 mins on you :-)

[CAJ1]

Its true, sometimes you feel like you don't exist. Hardly anyone has spoken to me today (my grumpy face probably scared them off lol!) I'm going to make sure I smile and speak to people when they seem down as maybe thats all they need (don't be suprised if I end up with a black eye for annoying them instead lol!)
