Sleep issues like insomnia are very big problems for many people with BP, not that that makes things any easier to swallow for you

Do you take any Klonopin before bed? I know that it works for some people, but not others (myself included).

I know that you spend a lot of time in bed. It may help to only spend time in bed for sleeping, napping, or periodically for resting. If you don't have any comfortable chairs, you may want to invest in a recliner if you don't have one already, or don't have the room

I'm so sorry that you are going through this. You need sleep

I have a recliner but hardly use it. I am mostly in bed watching tv . I started reading again. I am not comfortable in the recliner or on the chairs. I don't have a couch. I set on the chair when I am on the computer

What kind of bad thoughts are you having, Bobby? Are you fixating on death again?

Are you sleeping at all at night?
I know you said you are not sleeping during the day... I don't know how you keep going... you must feel miserable, and that doesn't help depression

You sound deeply depressed
I know that your pdoc is just trying to ween you off of the Cymbalta right now... maybe after the next time you see him things will get better. I wish you could see him sooner

I wish I could help you feel better some how...
But all I can offer is love and (((HUGS)))

thanks so much. I am fixated on death. Last nite I slept and had weird crazy dreams. I see the Pdoc on the 30. I am torturing myself mentally. I am worried about diabetes but can't control myself.
