It’s just a slight difference in definition between physical dependence and addiction, I wouldn’t worry about it

If it were just for sleep, far more often I see people prescribed Trazedone. Or even hydroxizine at night

I also have insomnia, for me it’s genetic. It’s a pain in the ass. In a bad week I’ve gone 3 days in a row with zero sleep. For me it plays out in this weird mental state where I can still function during the day because my brain won’t shut off, but my body feels exhausted and I feel kinda slow and dumb. This current week has been fairly bad, I was getting 4 hours on a good night, 1-2 on a bad night. But last night I actually got like 5-6, enough to have an actual dream which I always love. You don’t appreciate dreams as much unless you never have them, I’ve felt

But yours is even worse than mine. 7+ days no sleep is nuts, for sure I would be hallucinating
It's because I didn't take Olanzapine for 10 days I thought the dependency would wear off. I really didn't sleep for 10 days but I can tell you if you lay in bed with your eyes closed you will not really have poor feeling eyes. But the rest of your body feels strained and intense. And it made me cry a lot more.

At least now I know I'll have to take Olanzapine for life. I am trying to quit porn since 1st March but always at the 3rd or 4th say I keep falling back to masturbation. I want to quit masturbation because it makes me feel tired and drained and unhappy. The Christians on reddit say I have to repent and pray to stop this porn addiction but I don't see how that works.

The only prayer I like is the silent prayer from Jesse Lee Peterson. I don't really like praying - sitting down with folded hands and say something in your mind. I don't see how such a prayer does anything. The silent prayer at least makes you be still and feel stillness. I really want to quit porn and masturbation. Maybe when I get to work at the new job it'll be easier to not do it. Right now I'm jobless and have too much time.
