Don't take Advil if you are taking Lithium... Bad combo...

However, sleep is so important. I go through periods where I sleep well and periods where I can't sleep at all, and still more periods where I sleep way too much. I take Seroquel at night for sleep and it really does help. I still have the occassional 2 am night and there was a manic period about a month or two ago where I stayed up right through my dose until dawn, but for the most part I get a good amount of sleep each night.

If meds don't work, experts suggest going to bed at the same time each night, waking at the same time each morning and using your bedroom for only sleep, no studying, or watching TV, etc.

Try warm baths, quiet music at night, and even exercise early in the day to try to re-set your internal clock.
