There are so many side effects of your husband being deployed. Losing sleep is one of them. Today I went to the doctor on post and told him (a) I could not wait until October 19 to see a psychiatrist they out-sourced me to as I would not be alive then; (b) I did not sleep.
So, after a long discussion he prescribed Amitriptyline which does both the work of an anti-depressant and a sleep aid. When I was at the pharmacy filling the prescriptions the tech asked me if my husband was deployed. I laughed and said yes, how did he know. He said "Anti-depressant, sleep aid.... it's sadly too common."
That made me sad. And relieved to know I'm not alone. Mostly sad though.
Oh and... Gary's still without a weapon.
