I've been have hypo/manic symptoms but still sleeping 7hrs a night thanks to seroquel knocking me out. Is it even possible to have manic symptoms and still sleep? In the past I've had immense trouble sleeping during manic episodes.

When I was hypo I was still sleeping some plus seroquel was very sedating for me so I think it's possible.

The way I see it, you just reaaaaallly need the seroquel right now. Without it you might not be sleeping much. Hopefully it evens out

I've slept okay when I was hypo. Full mania was another story.

Yes. I have more difficulty falling asleep when hypo, but I do always sleep.

Yes, I usually sleep at least 4 hours even when I'm full-blown manic. That wasn't always the case---meds have literally forced me to sleep even when I don't think I can. My normal sleep time is between 7-9 hours.
