Thanks for the replies everyone.

What i was saying is i don't have sleep problems other than strange patterns which i seem to be able to fix if i try. I thought a big symptom of bipolar was not being able to sleep during manic episodes. Once i'm asleep i get a healthy 6-8 hours without any drugs. Someone above nailed it though, i tend to be depressed and irritable right when i wake up and later at night while having pretty high energy if there's something to do during the day. No depression too extreme though some days are slower than others, but i tend to snap out of it. I do notice once every month or so i'll have depression for a few days where i just hate myself, but it's not unbearable, i figured it was me getting used to being sober still, but does sound like a bp depressive episode as well. I'm wondering if maybe i'm not bipolar, i mean i've been off and on street drugs for 6-7 years, how could they know if that hasn't been causing my issues. I did have mood swings/depression as a kid though and i definitely have something going on, it just seems like it'd be hard to judge at this moment until i have a longer period of clean time.
