Question yawn:-O

I was wandering if you have had this problem too. I can't seem to get enough sleep. I sleep at night anywhere between 6-7 and on occation 8 hours sleep. I get up at 7:00 in the am and get my daughter off to school. I come home drink a couple cups of coffee, and I am so tired I can hardly finish the second cup. this has never happened to me before. Ive drank coffee forever, can't say that would be the problem.

I have also been taking an anti-depressant, Effexor xr for over three months. One of the side effects is drowsyness, but I have been taking it for almost four months, and just this past month, I can't stay awake if my life deppended on it. I've almost fallen asleep while driving!!

I also get headaches, but Im not sure if that is because of sleeping so much, or what. To top it off I have almost gained 15 pounds since this medication. Does anyone know of anything besides the meds that could be causing this?

Getting really tired of it!! Computris

Your question might be more relevant posted on the "Depression" board.
