weird day, no sleep

Well, I wondered if I would have any less than satisfactory news to report, and I have. I have been taking supplements and getting lipoburn/Vitamin B 12/B shots once a week by the internist/bariatrician for weight loss/energy to workout. Well we just started 2 x a week and I have started working out and losing weight on a modified Medifast type diet. I have been quite hyper in speech, movement, emails, etc. and I wondered if I was sort of spiraling up and would crash. I made the mistake of taking a Vitamin D gel (1.25 mg) and a DHEA tablet at the same time this morning. I kept reading about taking DHEA for fibromyalgia. When I worked out twice as long, was not sleepy for my afternoon nap (I nap if I awaken before 7 or 8 a.m. and this morning I rose at 4:30 a.m.) and then got more and more restless when late evening came, I knew I was in trouble. I looked up DHEA and it is an Anabolic Steroid. Oh wow. When will I come down, is the question? My eyes are so tired but my body is raring to go, and I am up 23 hours straight now. I think no more DHEA for me! I wonder how I will recover from this weird stint now...Other than this anomaly, I have been extremely happy, smiling all the time, and crying at least once a day when overcome with gratitude and relief from such wonderful normal happy energy day to day. I am using music a lot to enhance my mood or sustain energy to work out, as well.
