I only slept 3 hours last night, even with sleep meds. After grocery shopping and cleaning my daughter's bathroom today, I was tired. I took hydroxyzine (I have a prescription for that to use the dosage amount I'm prescribed for sleep, as needed; my pdoc has had me take it in the past when I need sleep in just this manner.) I slept 2 more hours, so that is good. 5 hours is still not a lot of sleep, but much better than I do if I'm starting to turn hypomanic. Hopefully, I will sleep better tonight. Ironically, my whole family seemed to have sleep issues last night. My husband said he couldn't fall asleep, and my daughter (10 yr. old) woke at 5 AM, unable to go back to sleep.

Sometimes a full moon messes with my sleep like that, but it wasn't a full moon, and it doesn't affect my husband and daughter. Don't know what was going on last night with the 3 of us.
