Oh my gosh! I am so freakin manic right now....im bipolar. Docs are changing my meds after my recent depression hospitalization. They took me off a huge amount of Seroquel, which also helped me sleep. I have slept 3 hours in 48 hours & am wired!!! It's 1:30am & just got back from Walmart & mom made me leave because I was literally filling the cart & am broke. She made me go around & put everything back. I have re-organized my closet 3 times in last 2 days n lots, lots more. This is killing me. It's not a good energetic energy, rather a nervous freakout have to do everything kinda feeling. Needless to say, I am killing myself pain wise & am taking all my prn breakthrough meds. HATE BEING BIPOLAR!!!!

I have an idea that would help both of us.

I've got a bad bout of fatigue. If someone could put us together and shake, we'd both be just about right, lol!

Good luck, firegirl. Hope you get some sleep soon!

I get that way, rarely. But, since I'm not driving currently, I stay awake for days! I know, it's ALL WRONG, but, can't really control it. So, I do my paperwork (which I completely hate, normally).

I hope you can level out soon. It feels better than the down side, but, it's not a good way to live!

Talk to you Doc!

Oh, btw, Seroquel is a SERIOUS med! So, large doses are not for me. BE Very Careful!
And, again, talk to you doctor!

Sunday eve, my third in a row, I watched three movies. Gotta at least give my feet the rest. Maybe it will help you a teeny bit to know we all have our own personal franchise of the International Order of Insomniacs. My doc says, "one of the symptoms"' end of discussion. Wish he could try his humor on me about 330 some morning. I'm learning to save specific things for that time. I don't get out of the recliner unless I've had a slow day.

I think accepting that it is a fact helps me. Trying to use it to my advantage as much as possible. I realize everyone can't respond that way because of their responsibilities.

Hope you hook up with the sandman tonight!
