what a week of up and downs,my life really sucks at the moment. I am so sick spent the night at the hospital as a patient. my asthma and blood sugar problems. And on the way home I found out that my friend found her parents both dead. So I am off to be with her, and try to get the red cross to send her hubbie home from Iraq. See you guys I am not that nasty after all huh |

Oh Ziggy, Im so sorry your going thru such a rough time right now! I'm well aware of how difficult it is when problem piles up on top of problem like this. Having just lost my mother I cannot imagine the heartbreak of losing both parents at once.
Please take care of yourself, you wont be able to help your friend if your in the hospital. And I seriously doubt anyone here thinks your nasty, so lets stop that train of thought right now.

Ziggy:
Be careful taking sleeping pills that were perscribed for someone else. Dosages are determined by a lot of different factors based upon the pts current & past medical history. And over the counter sleeping pills can be just as dangerous if you are on other medications.
If you are having troubles sleeping (due to all the emotional stress....can't turn your mind off once you get to lie down) there is an herbal etxract that would be much safer.
It is called Skullcap. It is in liquid form. You can add it to water or tea. Has minimal taste. Can be purchased at most health food stores.
Do NOT take if you are taking any daily medications as you must always be as careful with herbs causing reactions with Rx drugs. It does happen! Call your family dr. either way!!!.
S/he may support the use of skullcap (mine does I was on a sleeping pill for 3 years with my fibromyalgia) or could perscribe you a sleeping pill that is best for your body & medical history. Weren't you just in the ER?
Keep us posted (as time permits) & let us know how YOU are. Let of be of some support to you during this most difficult time when you are needed so desperately by your grief stricken friend.
Blessings,BigGirl |

don't worry Biggirl. I took one sleeping pill and didn't work at all. I got some sleep, every thing will over on saturday afternoon, and my friend has her hubbie with her now so. I don't think I will be over there as much now that he is home, I will be fine, and yes I was in the BR for my asthma. |

Sweetie, it has been my experience that even small things in life are overwhelming when you don't have proper sleep. Now if you look at what you are struggling with, those are hardly small. Why on earth are you going to bed at 3am? Perhaps it is because of a job, but otherwise GET YOUR BUTT TO BED EARLIER WHEN YOU FEEL THIS WAY! Sleep is so delicately tied to depression and anxiety and it must all be in balance. I am also giving you an ever so gentle nudge to call your doctor. Please give him or her the chance to help you on this. During times of STRESS is not the time to "tough it out" dear. Get something and get yourself back on track. Does this sound like I have been there? That is because I have! Now lets hear that you called your doctor today ok?
Hugs,
Kimbers

Kimbers, thank you and don't worry about me, I will be fine.HONEST. I have been working the grave yard shift for about 18 years now. I catch sleep when I can. I come from work about 8 am and by 11 am I am ready to go to sleep. but since what happen to my fiend everything was messed up. Now her hubbie is home for three weeks on leave. I should be able to get back on track.  so please don't worry about me, and I am one up on you  I talk with my doc this morining at the hospital. He told to go home and go to bed. so that is where i am going after this note to you, so take care |

Wow, I sure admire anyone who is able to do a grave yard shift! I am way too big of weenie. I am very glad you talked to your doc. And I was certain that you knew all of this, but I can tell you when it happens to ME...I can't see the forest through the trees. I see that you are a nurse, and I think sometimes those of us in the human services field often are not good at taking care of ourselves though we are able to preach it to others. A few years ago I had gotten into quite the "funk" and one of my dear friends had to kick my ass all the way to the doctors office. I was also doing the whole "I'll be FINE" line too which is always what makes me go into caretaking mode when I hear others use it! Anyhoo, I hope you are resting peacefully now!

It's easy! First you have to find a picture of Ziggy, right click and save image, then go into your profile here on the den where it says picture and browse for the file and upload it. When you are all done, then the syndication people for the comic strip will appear and magically spank you.
