Lack of sleep is rough to say the very least. I hope you can find something to help.

It is harder and harder dealing with my bipolar moodswings felt bad all day but did not sleep slept until 12 this afternoon now 4 am and i am still awake tried to sleep at about 1 am, could not restless ate some french fries went down ok day before tasted awful now looking on amazon bought some new gel pens and finger daubers small change was able to use some rewards if it 7 dollars that is a lot so seems like i am on an up swing again

I am going to chart my nights that i sleep and those i stay awake and show the nurse maybe they can make sense of it and help me try to deal with it besides therapy which i do not want the thing about a therapist is what you tell can be reported t0 the doctor and there may be hospital stay which would destroy me now

it is a shame that you have to keep silent sometimes to avoid this and i do not trust a therapist enough to have that power over me enough said i do not want any more meds that will not work so that is it for now until they come out with a new mood stabilizer this is long just saying how i feel noe to keep a record thanks for listening

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
