How are you when you first wake up?

After all, we’re coming out of a dream. No wonder we’re grumpy and depressed. Reality can’t ever be as good as my dreams.
But we’re ok once the day gets under way, right?

For me, waking up means, one or two hours of fine time, until day starts and everything gets to hard to cope. Most of the mornings, I just wake up for the nursing service, and then go back to bed. I’m tired in the mornings since my risperidone got upped to 6 mg per day.

It takes me forever to wake up in the mornings🙃

It’s hard coming out of dreams, you’re right.

My day always starts off badly , but then it gets gradually better as the day goes on.

I’m sorry the nurses don’t motivate you. I need interaction with others to be myself.

Without APs, I used to be wide awake as soon as I woke up. I was fully energized.

Now with APs, I wake up completely out of it. Recently, I tried to talk to my husband right when I woke up. He said, “I don’t know what you’re trying to say, but you’re not even speaking English”. Lol!

I’m very groggy for the first hour.
Do not expect me to be coherent until the morning coffee sets in.

i am content in the morning, but very much dislike people who are cheery and say good morning. i often ignore them and don’t respond to this customary morning greeting. my dad gets mad when i ignore his good mornings haha.

I often wake up to voices… saying random stuff… I like the mornings when it’s quiet.

I wake up very groggy. I use light therapy glasses while I eat breakfast

I wake up because of pain. I’m ok once the pain meds kick in.
