Yes, I took mine.

  Wanting a particle accelerator is  UNUSUAL!  :nerdy:  Also  BRAVE!   :arrr:


  I just took my Strattera.  Occasionally, on a day off, I will delay taking it so I can
  fall back to sleep and have trippy dreams.  I sleep somewhat less soundly on
  Strattera and sometimes can't have a proper daytime nap once it is in my system,
  so today I waited and had a nap and a long, tiring dream!  :zzz:

Haven't taken a single pill all day.   :thumbdn: on me.

Lunesta dreams await me...
Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

Does a pineapple milk shake count as medicine?  Nah, didn't think so.

Will take the evening ones now and add an Ambien since Trigger11 put the idea of a night's good sleep in my mind.

Maybe Tinkerbelle will show up instead and shower you with pixie dust.

She's so tiny, I'm not sure you would fit.  However she could knock you on your head with her wand.
Hope you get to sleep soon.  I'm toddling off to bed now.

Those Z-drugs are strange beasts in my experience.

I've been tried on all three of the current ones, zolpidem was just.....fucked up. Made me trip. I only intended to check my email, read a bit before going to bed, but instead, seemingly stayed up for ages on MSN, after it had started working without my really realizing it masking no sense whatsoever.

Burned one would know better than I would though, as I don't remember a damn thing.

Zopiclone does something similar, but a lot less extreme. Mainly just hearing strange noises out of the blue, as I was half asleep.

The other one, zaleplon was just rubbish, ultrashort-acting, and far, far too weak to even notice.

Today, taken some of them, some I only take later though. Had a nice long lie-in, thanks to the stuff I take to stop myoclonus/seizure stuff from happening, being a damn strong sleeping pill also. I used to take it for that reason, solely at night, now I take it during the day as well. Woke about 8am, took the morning dose of chlormethiazole, fast forward to about 6pm:P

Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.
