My dreams are often that I go crazy or I am in a crazy environment. It si super duper distressing. I wake up sweaty but not gasping for air. My quilt may be too hot. Pot withdrawal may explain it. I may have a heart attack soon. Or it is synthroid. Or PTSD from my illness context in the last few years. Or sleep apnea. On pot, and even synthroid before I stopped and started it again, I had amazing sleep. Divine dreams. 

UPDATE

Damn: the doctor does not want me to reduce synthroid. I only have a 'sightly underactive' thyroid...why bother? So instead, he prescribes me more drugs which are not really proven efficient and that can cause fainting.
