Oooh, that we could all sleep for 8 hours straight - even for 1 week! I wonder if someday the connection between sleep and mental illness will be fully explainable.

I encourage you to take the early Ambien. I hope your sleep tonight is better with it.

My old Pdoc and Richard absolutely believe that Poor sleep is what causes the most problems for anyone with Bipolar on the up side not enough sleep sends us up and it’s not the happy puppy rainbow type. On the down side seems people will sleep a lot but it’s not a restorative sleep. So both ends have terrible sleep quality.

There is a part of me that thinks as more research is done and in depth studies will help further dissect sleep and maybe something will come along that will actually help on the sleep issues every single person with Bipolar struggles with.
