sleep, where are you?

[vibrant]

anyone else having trouble falling asleeep. ah! i take so long falling asleep, and i'm constantly worry that i'll be mentally sick, for physically sick, if i can't get enough rest. then i get up at 12 the next day, which gets on my nerves. worst of all, i'm tired through out the day.

( telling me to see my pyschiatrist won't help. according to his secretary, he's booked till next year.)

Haven't slept well in 12 yrs!!! A good nocs sleepp is one where I only wake up3 or 4 times. Some nocs I wake up as much as 8-10 times and never feel like I do much more than just drift off!!!!

I know exactly what you're talking about. I got up at 10:00 yesterday morning, went to bed at almost 7:00 this morning and got back up before 10:00 am. I'm sure with ya on the not sleeping thing. I found myself talking to the robot last night, for it took me a while to find someone to talk too. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Sorry to hear about your sleeping patterns.
Being bipolar we always fall into that slepping "thing" at one point in our bipolar lives. I am on serequol, ( which helps in sleeping )plus lamictal ( another sleeping med) plus a muscle relaxer ( really a sleeping med)and last of all klonipin. (anxiety med) These meds put me to sleep right away,but, then, !1 hour after taking them, I'm up all night!
I really know what you are going through, I sleep during the day and my husband and kids get really mad at me but,Bipolar affects the entire family and I am so sorry for that.
I am rambling soryy,
I will pray for you!!!!
GOD BLESS!!!

Sister Vibrant,

If worrying keeps you from sleeping, let me show this from the Bible:

Therefore I tell you,
do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or what you will drink,
or about your body, what you will wear.

You can read the whole passage from Matthew 6:25 through 34. After reading it, will you kindly write your thoughts here? Do these words of Jesus seem irrelevant? I hope we can talk about this passage soon.
