Tylenol PM and tolerance

Apparently, this stuff can lose its effectiveness rather quickly. Witness:

Day 1: F0llowed indications on the package. No more than 2 caplets per 24 hour period. Took 2 at 9:15p, fell asleep around 10:30p, slept until about 6:15a. Nearly 8 solid hours of sleep. A little groggy a little cottonmouth but overall not bad at all. Much improved, as a matter of fact.

Day 2: Took 2 at 9:30p, fell asleep around 11:00p and slept until..... 4:00a. Extremely tired and wicked cottonmouth upon waking up. Not cool.

Day 3: Took two at 10:30p, fell asleep after 12:30a and was up before 6:00am. Even more tired.

Sleeping only 5 hours a night is bearable for a while but after a couple of weeks it gets pretty old. I'll try some melatonin tonight and see how that works out. Stay tuned for the riveting excitement.
