I feel asleep most of the day.?!
Question:
I feel asleep most of the day.?
I am a male in early 30. I was diagnosed of depression 8 years ago and on paxils every since. I have a problem with staying awake and focus. I feel sleepy all the time, even after an 8,9 hours of sleep. I wonder if there is any Medication to cure this problem. I have heard of Ritalin and adderal , should I try these out? Please help me , I am sleepy. I need to take a nap now.
Answers:
NO, do not take any more meds...go to your family doctor, and ask for a prescription for a sleep study...find and visit a sleep study clinic in your area...you may or probably have sleep apnea, mild or chronic, and need a c-pap (constant-positive air pressure) or an a-pap...do this before going on more meds...it will help, because the problem COULD be you are not getting ENOUGH oxygen into your blood system.
