lantus might possibly be wreaking havoc with me.

i started taking lantus consistently 1.6 years ago.since then my life has consistently become quite interesting.heres my true story.all my life i have been up at dawn even in my teens sleeping 5 or 6 hrs deep.i never felt tired.im quite muscular and exercise.low body fat.5;10 180 lbs.i have fought proffesionally once but have trained weight lifting and boxing most of my life.im very mellow and upbeat and if i wasnt i would fix it easily.now i have sleep depravation and i think mood swings depression.i dont know because ive never been depressed before,i still fight myself back to where i feel good but something is messing with me,and i am going to try an experiment.i am going off lantus and taking humulin long lasting insulin.lantus at first seemed good but i was good before so i have no way to say my sugars are bad.my a1cs are consistently 5s.i notice when the lantus is dropping after 10 12 hrs i start to feel like i did 2 years ago.well im starting my tests tonight with a new bottle of humulin.and will continue for 8 weeks.i will not use lantus again,because everything i read by humans not pharmaceutical companys say that they dont sleep and are moody and are depressed.seems crazy but i listen to humans not somebody trying to sell a product.updates coming!!!!!!!!

well day 3 on humulin n,.my sleep times are slowly creeping up from 3 am.they went to 4 am 2 nights and today i woke at 5;18.seems strange,i hope its not just me fixing myself or just knowing im experimenting on myself?i was a bit crabby today but thats ok cuz im not taking it personally,my sugar was 4.8 when i woke so.im guessing my sugars arent stabalized.i feel a bit more zippy and my thought process is instant instead of thinking about something to long.it will take awhile to get used to humulin n,and its adjustment.i actually hope its not lantus changing my life,i hope its just me,but its not looking to good.lantus is reminding me of aspartame,haha joking.
