8.30am - about to pick up my eleven year old niece to take her snorkeling at my beach for a couple of hours. Really looking forward to spending one on one time with her. It is a beautiful day, not too hot or too windy. Perfect conditions. Lucky.
Haven’t been sleeping more than 3 - 5 hours a night for the last 9 nights. I’m taking my meds and 50 mg Seroquel. The Seroquel knocks me out within 1.5 hours but I wake really early. Wide awake and happy. No chance of more sleep. Might try 100mg tonight to break the cycle. Don’t want to wreck my new found stability with 9 days of mild hypomania. See my pdoc on Tuesday so I’m sure he will have some ideas. This is causing me no distress. Enjoying each day. Just don’t want to mess with the best health I’ve had in like forever.
