I've rediscovered energy! I'm like doing things, like sweeping while waiting for the laundry to spin. The down side is dreaming. I'm normally a vivid dreamer, and they're back. Ugh. Weird, creepy, scary dreams. I don't wake up, thankfully. Not yet. Insomnia is how my entire depressive state started, way back when. Leery of that insomnia thing.
I use Headspace for night time stories and night time waking.
Sleep can be a challenge when weaning off this horrible medicine.
Chamomile tea around supper time will assist.
I wish you well!
