I have a xanax prescription but I try not to take more than my prescribed 1mg per day.

However, if I have not slept a while and my xanax just got renewed, I admit to taking 1.5x or 2x the prescribed dose. As expected, it puts me to sleep for a good portion of the night.

And..honestly, I’m not sorry. They say, lack of sleep is the new smoking! The..new..smoking!! Mull that over a minute, I’ll wait (smile).

So while my priority remains improving my sleep, desperate times call for desperate measures..and occasionally upping my xanax intake is my desperate, but infrequent, measure.

So sorry not sorry. I always thought that was a funny hashtag and I finally get to use it.
