I know it's been a while, and I'm sorry. I do have something interesting to post about, though!
As most people who know me are aware, I struggle with sleep issues. I was diagnosed with clinical insomnia at a young age, and considering that I work a lot, I have been trying of late to rest better, so I am more alert at work.
I received a complimentary VoxBox from Influenster recently, and they asked me to try ZzzQuil. One dose is 15mg of diphenhydramine, which is the active ingredient in Benadryl. (If you ever wonder why you get sleepy after taking allergy meds? Might be this.)
Unfortunately for me, I took a LOT of Benadryl as a kid. As such, I have to take a decent amount of it to do anything now. 15 mg of it didn't help me sleep; in fact, I was up until almost 4am the night I tried it. (Not the fault of the ZzzQuil... just me not being able to sleep.)
I would suggest this for people who seldom have sleeping issues, or people who are sensitive to medication, as it may help them more than it did me.
Another post is coming soon, with great news!
