Please give us an update on how you are doing...!

I'm slowly going into a manic phase, and instead of sleeping 10 hours, I only slept about 5, and only on and off, last night. I did however not take my sleeping tabs, as I am sure the package insert said they should not be used for more than 14 days, I've been prescribed them indefinitely. I take Zopiclone 7.5mg.

For someone who is used to 10 hours of sleep, your scenario is very scary, and I can only hope I manage to get more sleep tonight.
If I didn't respond to my sleeping tabs, I'd definitely not hesitate to contact my pdoc; regardless of weekend or not. And I would definitely administer myself to hospital, as I can ensure that my health will be closely monitored. There is something really irregular in your brain, if it can over-ride your body's natural sleeping rhythms - don't feel shy to ask for help
