Ok either I am crazy or my body chemitry is screwed majorly. Advice anyone?

Ok the problem I am having is: If I take say Nyquil or take Trazedone (sleep aid) I am bouncing off the walls, wide awake. If I take say dayquil or drink a cup of regular coffee I am out like a light, asleep. Is there something majorly wrong with me or what? I took trazedone to help me sleep once and I could not sleep for 3 days. I drank 2 cups of coffee a few nights ago to stay awake to make it to an early appointment and I was asleep on the couch within 20 minutes. I do not normally drink coffee at all. So what do you think I should do or what? (that would be chemistry in the title. I messed up and spelled it wrong and it won't let me fix it)

Have you ever been or have been diagnosed as having ADD or ADHD? the reason i say that is that in my family there are 5 members who have either ADD or ADHD and they react to caffiene / stimulants the same way. Either puts them to sleep or calms them. Where depressents/ ie sleep aids and the kind make them bounce the walls.
so seeing a Doctor NOT a bad idea =)

enna30	Posted Aug 4th, 2009 at 3:48AM I wwas also going to say you might have ADD or ADHD. The reverse response to certain chemicals is quite common in these people. But I imagine others (without ADD or ADHD) might also have the same type of response. . . You are NOT crazy! Your reactions might just be a little different to the most common reactions to these substances. Relax!! Rated: +1Vote for this!

mariellarose	Posted Aug 3rd, 2009 at 11:22PM Your body just reacts toward those chemicals differently than most. You're not screwed up, necessarily... just, special. See a doctor if it really worries you. Other than that, just switch your usage of each thing. Take Nyquil when you want to stay awake, and drink coffee when you'd like to sleep. Just don't overdo any of it, and always keep things in moderation. Both of those aren't that healthy for you anyway, so keep usage to a minimum. Rated: +1Vote for this!
