Thanks Elizzzzz. I imagine the only way for sure I'll know it's C, in my case, is to mention to my sleep doctor (who is very good. I am lucky in that regard), since as you said, it seems to be different for everyone. I have one emotion it seems to always happen with recently, but it's more like my eyes won't stay open (I'm not sleepy then, it's just THEY WON'T STAY OPEN.) I'm not sure if it's really C though.

I've had sooo many doctors tell me what I experience is "normal" over the past three years. Or I mention something that is happening that's not normal, they don't know what it is, and shrug it off. It's so frustrating!

All I know is, for someone with a psychotic disorder, I felt better on stimulants than I had.... ever... mentally. And that's not usually the case.

Thanks so much for listening, you guys, I seem to have gone off the subject. I think I will mention the C-like stuff to my sleep doc now.

thanks!
