My head is full of static and frustration. I would like nothing more than a solid spate of unconsciousness, unbroken by troubled dreams. I want everything wiped, memory erased. I get so goddamned tired of it all, and nothing seems to make that stop.

Isn't that why vodka was invented?
( no that's not a suggestion , just a snarky observation of how vodka effects me )

I can't sleep if I've been drinking vodka. It's weird.

Oh I wasn't suggesting ... I just know that when I drink vodka it usually ends up a blank slate in the morning. Granted I'm laying in bed with socks on my hands, wrapped in plastic wrap, and smell vaguely of applesauce. Sometimes it's better not to know ... :)

Some antidepressant medications have the side effect of suppressing dreaming, at least for me. Maybe a doctor could help? Might be safer than self-medicating :)

I've never experienced that side effect in my medication history. My insomnia is pretty awful but the Ambien doesn't stop the dreaming.

Not all of them do it for me. And the ones that do don't completely suppress dreams, as I'm still aware that "I was doing something, just can't recall what" when I wake up, but the content is trivial. Going OFF them is what clued me in to the fact that they were doing it.

The worst offenders were also the ones that made me sleep most of the day, too. Not worth the benefits they might have had.
