It is 2:30 in the morning and I am exhausted- but I can;t sleep. Last week one night I went to sleep at 5:30 am and woke up at 7:00… and could not get back to sleep. I am having a hard time and my husband and I have been discussing going off the drug. I have lost almost 30 lbs but it is taking its toll- the lack off sleep has been hard on every one. I am pretty bitchy and impatient. I feel like a crazy person sometimes from lack of sleep. I am also losing wight and feeling so much hope- I am afraid if i go off of it I will stumble and struggle… maybe ultimately fail.
So I am at odds about what to do. I have weeks that have been okay sleep wise but last 2 weeks have been the worst.
Maybe I will reach 50 lbs weight loss and go off then. I wonder if anyone else has had similar problems taking Meridia. I know many report “insomnia” but that can mean anything from trouble falling asleep to being WIDE AWAKE all night.
