No I don’t think it’s with everyone. Between episodes my mom with BP1 can always sleep good. Just not when manic or depressed. I also have a cousin with bp1 and he doesn’t have issues with sleep when depressed only manic... I’ve never had issues with sleep until my first manic episode this year, then when I was more in hypomania, I started sleeping fine.... but then when the depression hit it’s been crap ever since!! Anywhere from 1 hour to 5 hours, but it’s always broken sleep.
