Day 23-24 of, "The Battle Within."

It's been two days since I have been on Xomba. Thank God I am back, and I am here to stay. The most stressful thing that has been happening in my life is my battle with Insomnia.

I bought this movie called Insomnia, starring Al Pacino and Robin Givens. I have watched it two times, and I am thinking about watching it again. I also bought it because I suffer with Insomnia real bad. On watching the movie I learned that Al Pacinos' character hadn't had six or seven days of sleep. Robin Williams character had called Al and told him that he had broken his record of sleepless nights. I was thinking that I had broken the record also, since I haven't had any sleep in six days myself.

I am planning to make me some doctors appointments to see a neurologist, a heart doctor and a doctor about my insomnia.

I talked to my lawyer today and found out that they are appealing the Social Securities denial for my SSI claim. I need some money bad, so that I can pay some bills, but everyone is suggesting I wait. I'm wondering if I can apply for unemployment since I got my seperation papers from my old job, in the mail.

I had one day of insomnia medicine left. I was feeling very bad, agitated, and crossed this morning. I hadn't had any sleep in seven to eight days. I took my last dose of insomnia medicin and went to sleep. I had to get up to use the bathroom and almost fainted (Syncope). My wife caught me, and helped me to the bathroom. I got up again and went to the bathroom to use it again, and almost fainted again. Lucky for me, my wife was there to catch me again. She should have called the ambulance regardless of the fact I was yelling at them like she said. Instead she helped me back to bed, and flushed my medicine down the toilet.

Last but not least I am getting ready to do another blog; Until next time I'll see yall again.

Have you looked into social

Have you looked into social security disability, a different program than SSI? If you have a medical condition that falls into SSA's definition of disability and it's documented in your medical history, you may qualify for a benefit. It would vary, depending on whether it's considered partial or full and some other factors, but it's worth checking. Flyswatter Xomba Moderator
