I tip over when i am tired, and when my medicine is wearing off and when i
have a sleep attack  - this might sound superfluous, but i tip over whenever i
fall asleep . (ca the dormouse _ i sleep when i eat is  not the same as i eat
when i sleep) however, in  my case, my significant other has noticed that when
i am at the lowest point in my cycle, i will scratch my nose, then yawn, then
fall asleep for a few minutes or just a few seconds, and so whenever my nose
starts itching, it is time to take a dose. And i if am not supported, i will
tip over to my right side.,
so much so that i have been known to fall off my chair - a rude awakening.
