Not sleeping

Hi, I've never posted before but I thought I'd give it a go. I've had loads of trouble sleeping since Sunday and ended up taking some time off work as I started to feel hypomanic. Thought I was ok again but now it's almost 2 am... and I need to be up at 6.30 and had a fight with my partner . It's so lonely. I seem to be having many dark nights of the soul. Not sure if I'm doing the right thing posting here but I thought I'd try.

Re: Not sleeping

@Juno Hi Juno and welcome to the forums. I have a great deal of trouble sleeping at times particularly lately with the stormy weather (the weather always affects me). Maybe a trip to your gp might help if he/she could give you some medication to help you sleep. 

 

My normal meds help but when my sleep pattern is getting completely out of wack I have some sleeping pills just to help which a take maybe once or twice and they really help just get me back on track again. Hope this helps. greenpea

Re: Not sleeping

Thanks @greenpea. I never even thought about how the weather has been so all over the place recently. It does make it hard to sleep too. I think I will go back to the gp to ask for help if I don't sleep again tonight. Thanks for the lovely welcome.
