Getting worried about the amount of sleep I have been getting. After dealing with bipolar for so many years, I know that the loss of sleep is a major factor in contributing to an episode.
I am wondering if the past two months of not taking my morning meds is starting to have an effect now. I did talk to my pdoc and she is okay with me stopping them, and as I mentioned before she is also discontinuing the Lithium - however only getting only 2 1/2 hours sleep last night has me a bit concerned. I did lay in bed an extra two hours, but with broken sleep because I didn't put my CPAP on. I might up my dose of melatonin at night and see if that has an effect, but that worries me too because of the mini hangover it gives me in the mornings.
I know my new relationship has an impact because of how excited I am about him and discovering things about each other. I hate to say that my excitement is mania, though. I really hate that every time I have good feelings about something, my fear in my head automatically goes to thinking its mania.
I don't know man, I don't know - this stuff is all pretty tricky.
