Is it usual to go from sleeping 13 hours during depression, to 8 hours when 'stable' and now not being able to sleep and waking up every 30mins or so?
I used to sleep like a log and battle to wake up in the morning. Now I can jump out of bed, bar the anxiety that's killing me. My stomach feels like it's in knots, and there's no reason. Tried Klonopin, but it's been of no use. I'm lucky to fall asleep at midnight, then still wake up all night... Don't know how to handle this. I'm OK the next day, and don't feel too tired, but I know I usually need 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Maybe I'm being to strict with my routine, which cannot be kept during hypomania...? __________________ "I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
