This episode sounds like hell for you, Chris. I'm glad you have those supports in your life. Insomnia and I have a shaky but persistent relationship and I remember the days I had to take AP's just to go to sleep. Then again, now it's a muscle relaxer, but they don't have the side effects the AP did.

One question, are you typically rapid-cycling bipolar or is this an anomaly for you? It sounds like you are on a roller-coaster of biblical proportions. Thoughts and prayers.
