Half Zanaflex at 6. Ended up waking up right before 9. Felt good because of it. Been missing sleep. 6.5g at 10:15. I want to be off this garbage, but I can’t do CT. Short walk. Already 2:00. Haven’t done shit all day really. I think I’ll start a taper. I would love to do like 5/6 or something and just get used to it. Half gram a day is probably easier up to a point. As soon as I type that, I start feeling shitty. Short walk. 7g at 3:50. I wanted to skip, but I know that’s a shit show. Pain is bothering me even with the drugs. I’m wondering if I should force a taper anyway. That’s where I am right now. There is nothing good for me off the drugs though. Short walk. I was feeling really good on the walk. Serotonin maybe. I was thinking that I slept really well last night. Woke up way late. Not tired at all today. That’s one difference over the last several days. That dip on my birthday was bad sleep. It shouldn’t matter THAT much. I need to make sure I keep getting good sleep. That’s the best indicator of a good day right now. I didn’t feel ‘good’ from pain relief today, I just felt pain relief. Not like I normally hope for. But I can do this level of relief. Just a sort of neutral. Using the inflatable brace for a while this evening. It’s intense, but I think it’s helping. I need to get back on the table. Only been on twice today I think.
