I’m needing less and less sleep. We’ll see where this is going. What about you? Are you still up or just getting ready for bed? What time is it where you’re at?
It’s just past 10am. I’ve been up since 6:30am and I had a late night so I’m tired. Going to take the dog out for a walk soon.
Hope you manage to sleep. I’ve been taking Theanine lately and it’s calming. I recommend it.
I already slept. I got 4 hours. I feel rested and wide awake. Maybe I’m going to go manic again. We’ll see. Maybe I will try theanine. I hear good things. What kind of dog do you have?
It’s 5:20PM here in China. I’m about to cook dinner. I just changed internet provider this afternoon. Now both the broadband and the net TV are settled down. Much better for me to get on this site. …you can drink a cup of honey water to help with your sleep, Leaf.
When I was depressed I would get about five hours sleep and I would be the same. Wide awake and alert. But it was my mind that was alert and wide awake my body felt tired. It’s passed now. Perhaps it is mood related. I would defiantly keep an eye on it because four hours sleep is not really enough.
My dog is a pug. She is nine months old.
Oh it’s ok. I already slept. I’m having honey tea. It’s yum! What are you making for dinner?
Cottage pie tonight. One that I can just warm up in the oven. But it’s comfort food. You?
Thought that was a question for me lol
awwwww pugs are so adorable. Yea my sleep has been all over the place since my manic episode in July. I just can’t get it to settle into a good pattern. I’ve been sleeping like 12 hours some days. I think the pendulum is swinging back the other way now. It does that a couple times usually before it settles down. Back and forth.
Oh that’s ok. What is in a cottage pie?
I’m up and have had trouble sleeping through the night lately.
Can’t tell if it’s bc I switched to abilify or that I quit Ativan. Both changes occurred about 12 days ago.
12;30 pm here now, i woke up at 7am and i’m a little tired already, yes
What’s up Dollar? Abilify can be quite stimulating and ativan can really help you fall asleep. So with that combination of things happening it’s not a surprise you’re having a hard time honestly. I don’t know though 12 days, you should be used to it by now. When are you taking that Abilify. You should be taking it in the morning I think.
Kept forgetting to take my meds, now I’m up at 3 am trying to avoid getting murdered by demons
Yes I can see why. It’s night night time. I always forget where you are?!? but you’ve been up for more than 16 hours, that’s a long time.
That’s terrible. Sounds like you really need those meds now. What did you skip? Can you take it now? I would if I was hallucinating demons.
I’m awake. The Seroquel has my sleep patterns all kind of wonky these days. I did get plenty of rest yesterday though.
No, i woke up at seven am, now it’s one pm like six hours awake. We have different time zones, big difference, about ten hours difference. I am from a European country
Good morning. I hear seroquel really helps people fall asleep. I’m glad you had plenty of rest. I don’t why I just can’t get my sleep to straighten out. Once I get that bipolar pendulum swinging it kind of has a mind of it’s own for awhile.
Gm @Leaf I’ve always been an insomniac. For most is horrible for health, for e ah, it’s been the norm, my entire lifw
