"You have that 2 pm feeling, but coffee doesn't work for long. So why not take just one [product that keeps you awake all day] and lose that 2 pm feeling?"

Why not get enough sleep?

Maybe you couldn't get enough sleep because the kids were up all night with coughs, or your cat puked on the bed while you were sleeping and you had to change the sheets and do laundry, or your neighbors kept you up bumping and grinding all night long and you lost your earplugs...

There's a lot reasons to not get enough sleep. Or not be able to.

I'm sorry to hear that's happening to you, and I hope that it all improves when you have your own (quieter) place!

The only thing I have had lately, is Jaeger is up every 1 to 2 hours, thrashing and crying due to teeth pain. I would be lying if I didn't say I've been depending on coffee & vitamin B to get me through!

I just was giving an alternate view as to why someone might need an assist, instead of just "sleeping more". Not everyone can sleep more, or enough, all the time.

Easier said than done. By the time I finish work, the next phase of the day starts and I'm cooking, checking in on Mom, running errands, doing lesson plans and IEPs, trying to keep the house clean and helping Bree with homework. If I get to bed by 11:30, I'm doing good and then it's up by 5:30 to start the whole thing over again.

FWIW, I don't drink those energy drinks, but it sure is tempting when you have that full a plate.

Because, as Douglas Adams would say, that wouldn't make any money for the Dolminsaxil Shoe Company.

Why not set up your life so that if you have that 2pm feeling you can take a nap?

Because then you won't be able to watch Letterman, silly!
