after last year I got over my issue with using anxiety medication as needed. Last night I had good reason to use a tiny dose to shut off some unreasonable anxiety. I knew it could make me drowsy, but it was that or not sleep for hours.
Apparently I turned off my alarm and slept again and don't have any recall because I was really awake at 5:50 am. I need to be at work and ready to go at 6;30 am. I made it, not the best hair day but I was there and ready to go. Some of the positives are that I am well rested and the anti-anxiety effect has been lasting all day today. I got things done that were really important all morning.
So good but not that good on a day you need to get up at 5 am.
