Not just tired
Despite taking extra salt and Provigil, I have suffered from excessive sleepiness all day.  I have fallen asleep multiple times, just briefly, while upright.  I also have had temporary paralysis.  I can't stop yawning and my eyes keep tearing.  I am profoundly tired, but not actually asleep.  I feel like if I could fall asleep, I may finally feel rested.  I may not be getting recuperative sleep during the night.  I may be in a semi-conscious spell, but salt hasn't helped.  I'm in such a haze.  Maybe my next doses of meds will help.  Maybe exhaustion is setting in due to overdoing it due to hypomania this past week.  Good night.
