One thing I read about Bipolar disorder is to not stay in bed too long as well. When it is time to wake up in the morning wake up right away and get out of bed. Take a shower and just avoid bed during the day. If anything it would be better to sit on a couch than lay or sit on a bed wide awake. Getting outside for a walk is good too or sit under a tree. I have to avoid my bed during the day because I love to lay in bed all day and that is bad for someone like me.
