'help' I'm currently taking a cocktail of meds, so I'm either in a complete daze or in terrible pain or both! I've been prescribed with Gabapentin, Tramadol and Paracetamol for the pain and Mirtazapine 30mg for the depression. Mirtazapine is good for helping me get to sleep at night and once I get to sleep I manage a full 12 hrs sleep! But I can not seem to wake up until I'm physically ready to wake up! Is this normal? I'm so tired all the time snd I cant be bothered with the most menial of things, which end up being a mountain of things to do, personal hygiene is one thing that often gets neglected along with keeping on top of general housework. I've been to Pain Management Classes and learnt all about pacing, light excercise and relaxation techniques. I worry about money as I am unable to hold down a Job at the moment and I am unsure about what benefits I can claim etc. If I had enough money coming in I would consider hiring a cleaner once or twice a week! In turn it may help with my depression by having one less thing to worry about! Any advice out there for me? any would be welcome!! |
