Thanks! About the computer screen....yes, I've been told about electronics hindering sleep, or that it takes longer to experience fatigue, since the computer can be activating. I definitely have trouble with that. Youtube is bad for me. I'll watch one video, then I'll come up with a whole bunch of videos I want to watch after that, and it's hard for me to put it away when I need to.

I can definitely benefit from a regular sleep cycle. Weekends throw me off, since I usually stay up a lot later. Meditation/guided imagery sometimes helps, but it's been so long since I've tried it. I get too fidgety to stick with it, especially if I am on the hypomanic side. That being said, I know I have to get back to doing these things. Nothing works wonders, but if I am able to improve things a little bit, then I think my functioning would be higher than where it is now. I need to stay disciplined, but it really is hard.
