Thomas Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I somehow took my nighty-night meds this morning instead of my AM meds. This includes 1.5 Clonopin and 30 mg. Restoril. I am drinking coffee and fighting to stay awake. The drive into work was before everything really kicked in, but still felt weird. Tommy I meant meds, not beds.

Maddy Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Yes, I've done that. One of hte reasons for me getting a pillbox and filling it once a week. it really cut down on missed doses and mixed up doses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 Actually, I have a weekly pill box, but I read upside down very easily and I sometimes confuse the morning with the night (though the blue color for nigh should be a tip-off).

resonance Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I have at least twice. Oddly, nothing happened either time, even with the seroquel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dweii Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I'm superorganized when it comes to taking my meds at the right time, thanks to a pillbox and setting the alarm on my cell phone. Taking Ambien when you're not ready to go to sleep though, is a baaad idea. Trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 *raises hand* Only I took both my nightime meds at the same time as my morning meds. I was traveling and put them all together in a daily pill box. One morning I forgot to separate out the nighttime meds and took them all. I realized immediately what I'd done. I don't remember what all I was on at the time (not a lot), but Adderall and Ambien for sure. It wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. I definitely feel weird for a couple of hours until the Ambien wore off, but I think the Adderall helped counteract it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loon-A-TiK Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 i've purposely taken my night meds (2mg klonopin and 3mg risperdal) during the day when i've just needed a nap and couldn't fall asleep. it is a crapshoot for me during the day. i might stay awake and just be a zombie, or i might crash out for a few hours. i don't think that taking the meds at a different time by a few hours is going to hurt me if it isn't something i do often.

dianebea Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 I took my night meds in the morning and some others recently when I felt suicidal. I didn't take enough to hurt myself, but, needless to say, I spent a week in the hospital because I called my pdoc when I woke up. dianebea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dweii Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 I remember one time I didn't sleep all night, so I took a number of sleeping pills in the morning, then still couldn't sleep more than a two or three hours. After that I went to a caf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
