I am in a depressed state with my bipolar and all I want to do is sleep. I get up for maybe a couple of hours a day and then go back to sleep. I know that sleeping is just a coping mechanism but I figure it is better than some of the things I could be doing. Today I have slept for about 13 hours and am still tired enough that I could go back to sleep but am trying to force myself to stay awake at least for a few hours. I am tired of either sleeping way too much or not sleeping at all. I know this is because of the bipolar cycle but sheesh will it ever end?
