Its symptomatic I guess. I am moderately hypomanic right now so I just don't get tired. I have been up for 2 days now and I could easily stay up all night again. It has been like that all week. 2 nights up and one night down. It doesn't really effect my energy in the day but I do loose my balance a little bit.

When I am in this state it is too hard to get myself into a sleep mode so I end up not trying or putting it off and putting it off until the night is gone anyways. I am trying to convince myself now to shut it down and try to sleep because I know that if I don't it could escellate the mania. I don't know your dx but some of us with bi polar symptoms kind of like the mania and have a hard time giving up even a minute of it when it comes round. The crash is inevitable so it is easy to convince yourself to make the most of the high while it lasts. Totally self distructive and reckless thinking.

I would much rather go into my studio and play with some design work or do some writing or even do some house work right now then even think about going to bed. It will be a battle of wills the next hour or so to see which wins out. At very least I will sign off the internet for the night and see if that can't start a momentum of winding down.

I share Nola's hope for good sleeps all around.
