Last October, Thomas seemed to hit rock-bottom when a 911 call from his home reported that someone in the house had overdosed on sleeping pills and was taken to a hospital. Reportedly, Thomas said the person involved was his daughter, denying it was an overdose but saying, "My daughter is very down right now. None of us are OK.'' But police reports identified the subject as a man who was passed out on the floor when the ambulance arrived. And the police chief in Harrison, N.Y., David Hall, told the New York Times that Thomas was lying -- and intimated that he indeed was the health victim in question.
Fucking sleeping pills. I am totally hooked on them and the thought of getting laid off and losing my health insurance freaks me the fuck out because that means no more sleeping pills. However, stories like this scare me. One way or another I'm going to have to kick the habit. I don't want to get knocked out and never wake up again. There are too many instances where I've taken a pill and then I do not remember anything that happened after 30 minutes. Then I see misspelled posts all over the blog and then people are asking me shit about something we talked about the night before, but I have no idea what they're talking about most of the time.
What can I do though? I can't sleep. Chicago has been stressful. I'm going to make a serious effort to ween off the pills when I move back to California. I won't really have a choice but if I do it gradually it shouldn't be too bad.
