I track my sleep with an app and it is really surprising. I average 6 hours or so broken into 3 sleep periods. averaging between 1.4 up to 3.8 per period. I thought might be interesting to see how well you sleep. How long and night time totals and any comments ... my app is sleepbot on android but all I use is the tracking feature.

I get about eight hours per night, but I wake up constantly due to sleep apnea. It actually has been a little better lately, but for a while I felt that I was waking up every 15 minutes.

I did sleep ten or more solid hours on Seroquel. I'm almost off the Seroquel and on 50 mg of Trazadone and I'm waking up all the time. Last night I was wide awake after four hours. I did finally fall back to sleep. I think I'm going mixed. So yeah sleep use to be a beautiful process.

Yeah I think it really helps to track sleep.
I'm pretty conscious of my own personal sleeping patterns. Purely because it's a sure sign of where my mood is at at any given point in time. |

Nine to ten hours...
Would sleep more if I could. (Oh, and it's unbroken I wanted to add.)

I'm afraid I am. Spending freely and being impulsive again grrrr. The only thing I can see this medication doing is increasing my appetite. I've put on 10 lbs in 3 weeks. Not happy about this. Guess I'm going to be a fatty at this rate. I have a review at the end of the month. I need to raise my sleep and fatty issues then.

I've not had a mixed episode in 3ish weeks. This is good news.

toodles - Good you haven't had a mixed episode in awhile at least. That's why I'm getting off seroquel - it was turning me into a frickin fatty! I don't want to be fat. Especially since it's summer.
