i agree with the wise and wonderful BethRags about this being possibly an effect of your bipolar and about adjusting at least some of your meds if it works out. It seems like you're already working on that latter part, which i think is good. i am also not sleeping regularly recently so i can partly relate although for me it's mostly a matter or laziness and not really bipolar since i don't have it. Try to sleep more regularly even if it simply means taking one step at the time. Same with showering and brushing your teeth. i Hope and Pray things will improve for you. Sending many Safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @Miss Laura, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!
