I won't chalk this up to insomnia or an episode, but my sleep has been dwindling. I'm down to 4-5 hours a night now. I think it's just the daylight hours being longer. In the past, however, this time of year was notable for triggering hypo & flat-out mania. I don't have any of the accompanying symptoms now, though.

@Jennifer 1967...Enjoy the day with your daughter! I hope you can shake the minor depression you were feeling yesterday. As I've written in the past, it seems from everything I've read that you're the designated caretaker in your family. It's unfair to assume that responsibility 52 weeks a year. You SHOULD take a few weeks off each year to spend time on yourself...going to Florida included. LIfe is short, & none of us are getting any younger (me especially!).

I've noticed there have been a few more people reading & participating on the boards the past few days. It's great to see! To a person, I hope you're all doing well, & that those of you in the States have a meaningful & pleasant Memorial Day!
