I have to take lots of naps during the day. Sometimes I feel guilty about it, but it’s something a lot of us here need to function. XD

My Onfi [clobazam] at bedtime has been awesome for a good nights rest!

I try not to. I have issues with insomnia. My seizure meds make me sleepy but if I sleep I might throw off my schedule and not be able to sleep at night. It's hard pushing through it though.

There have been many times where I would be wide awake . I would be watching tv or something, the next thing I’m asleep and sometimes my wife would see me and ask why I’m sleeping again and that I was wide awake. I would just shrug my shoulders, because I wasn’t sure at the time.
