Nearly bloody 5am here and still can't sleep.

I'm just about to try heading to bed, but so sorry for your sleepless night! The worst part of not sleeping is when you're the only one awake and there's no one to talk to :'( Hope it gets better soon.

Ruby I am finding the long days and extra light are making it hard for me to sleep. I had a good routine going in the winter.

I hope you get this under control. Lack of sleep is dangerous for bipolar people, as you well know!

Thanks Charlotte, I hope you manage to sleep.

Lovely to see you Marlene. Yeah with just coming out of hospital, it could all head in the wrong direction. I feel slightfully euphoric, not going to complain about that :-) x
