Alphonsus 07/19/2009

I slept 12 hours yesterday...was still tired.

I slept 8 hours last night...still exhausted...

Sometimes it seems that there is not enough sleep in all the world for me.

Depression sucks!

I find that I can sleep if I just take my ass to bed....and NO TV on. If I lay down in a dark room and close my eyes I go to sleep.

I do tend toward 9 or 10 hours a day, but function ok on 4 to 6 a night...as long as it isn't permanent.

Definitely a day person here.

I can relate to this alphonsus ... one of the many slippery, slopes of depression

Go out when it is like this, and walk twenty miles. Do this, or some like physical exercise, and you will sleep better, and wake up rested. And find what you are depressing, because that is the root of the dis-ease. For what it is worth, I got out of the box just that way. I found the lock on the inside, or was helped to find it. I am out until the next time, if there is a next time. Peace for your heart, Steve.
