My sleep is good. It's a little broken (I woke up 4 times), but I'm still getting an adequate amount.

I think I slept from 9pm until 4am? That's a solid 7 hours, which is good for me. I dislike getting 10 hours a night on rexulti. It's too much!! I used to get 7 a night prior to starting meds, so 7 is my "actual" normal. (I would go to bed at 9pm and wake up at 4am sharp without an alarm. Did that everyday since I was 9... Then it all changed when I started meds at 24. )

My therapist insists that I am sometimes hypomanic/manic even when I have "normal" sleep (like 7-10 hours), but I don't know about that. I'm sure she'll tell me today if she thinks so, though. But I guess there was one time I was getting 11 hours a night and I was speaking rapidly and tangentially, in a manic but almost psychotic manner (according to her). She said she couldn't follow me at all and that I was saying bizarre, nonsensical things. I had no idea at the time. She told me at the end of the appt that she was "concerned," and I was like, "concerned about what? huh???" (I was talking about how I wondered what would happen if a cow and a goat had a baby, and I made cheese out of the baby's milk... should I open a pizza shop? Yeah, I was not well... lol.)

So I dunno. Sleep might not mean anything. We'll see today in about an hour and I'll update this thread.
