Insomnia and bipolar2

Good morning to all! Suffering a little insomnia. Not to bad but other days its horrible. Getting no sleep is dangerous cause I have epilepsy. No sleep causes seizures. Anyone else have epilepsy?? I feel alone cause I haven't found anyone here that struggles with epilepsy. Hope to find someone to talk to about how they cope with it. I just had a horrible seizure a month ago that landed me in the ICU that caused a brain bleed. Luckily it healed on its own. I was so terrified that I would have to have surgery. I had a concussion from hitting my head when I had the seizure they said. Pretty scary!! Love to hear from anyone who can relate. Have a blessed day to everyone!!!😀😀

Its so difficult trying to manage the up and down mood swings everyday. Insomnia is very hard to deal with cause if I don't get any sleep it causes a seizure. How are you hun? Is everything going good?

I really think i have type 2 as well. I will make sure to tell my psychiatrist that. My mood swings are unstable. I'm starting to feel more irritable. More like angry. I don't know why sometimes. I'm just tried of living. What's the point for me? I have constant racing thoughts. Now a lot about suicidal things.

Can i private message you?

Absolutely you can message me private. I know how you feel about being unstable. The racing thoughts are hell I agree. The point of you is that your a great person. Your very kind, caring and you have a purpose we all do. Not sure what mine is tho. Lol. Feel free to message me anytime!!
