Ok I know this may sound a bit silly. But I am trying to keep my self in check. I just wrote a couple of things that might be beneficial to me to help me get out of my issue I'm going through. And I want your opinions on it. I get often lazy but would like to keep my self motivated more if possible to get this to work. Sorry if there is a thread about this already. I kinda wrote my thoughts down so I feel a bit better.

For starters, I would like to stay in shape, for having bipolar, how often should you exercise? I'm a pretty skinny guy and the last time I got checked I weighed about 129lbs.

And two, I would like to start trying to sleep better and get a decent sleep cycle. I usually too much. Which isn't a good thing. My mom tells me I sleep too much. And I know that depression can cause insomnia if I'm not mistaken. I would like to start sleeping better if that makes sense. I want to make realistic goals that can help me cope with my bipolar disorder. How much sleep should the average adult get each night? I'm 26. I have a hard time getting and staying up. I also get mood swings sometimes, so I heard that sleeping and getting up at the same times can help stabilize your mood and keep your mind in check.

And I would also like to eat better. What can I do to eat better? I really refuse to turn vegan. "No offense to any one who is", as much as I like my fast food, meat, and hotdogs and fries. xD

And for the hypomania stuff. Would that all go away on its own like the doctor said? I would really not want to try to trigger it anymore. I know some people like it, but it's frustrating for me on my end. It makes me feel hyper, and at night I just feel like a zombie and in the mornin I feel like I'm out of energy. and I don't want to sleep. How can I fix my self so I can continue to being a day person? Thank you all for all the help. ^_^ And if I stay on my medication and exercise and get out more during the day will that help wear my body out and keep my mind in tact? Thank you guys for the help. ) I'm just trying to set some goals here though. And I am also looking into drinks and such like V8. Do they got drinks like that can help with moods? And can getting a message once in awhile help ease stress? Thank you. Hoping this isn't coming off as spam or anything. Hope you all have a good night/day.
