The fact that you want sleeping meds but don’t want (other) meds is a contradiction in itself.

It's much easier on the outside to see what is going on and when a person crosses over a line called 'manic and irrational'. At the same time, I have lived through the state of mind described by Tryingtobehappy5. Sent the email, feel that any suspicion that I'm not depressed leads to people thinking I am manic and need to be medicated. I think it is very hard to reach people in that state of mind. In the end, i feel better with the med regime I am on than without. My goal now is to make it through life with out another trip to the psych ward. I have found them to be brutal experiences where I live in Canada.

Good sleep would help that though. They just want me medicated, evem though i wasnt until a couple years ago and i was ok then even if i wasnt completely stable. Why is that the goal anyway, why doesnt anyone want to fully feel the good and the bad. If it ends badly its nothing new to me I know how to be horribly depressed, they will never fix that anyway they just dont like me being up even though its not as bad. And if it ends even worse than that well its been a long time coming anyways.

I've had almost the exact train of thoughts. In the end those episodes ended very badly for me. You also might feel better on medication than you do right now. Try to find meds that help you sleep besides sleeping pills. A number of antipsychotics can do that.
