Oh my how I can't sleep. Just went for 10 minute walk. Soooooo bored!!
Did you listen to sisters??? I'd call now but don't want to get you in trouble, hehehehe!!! I'm bored 7 get this I just got up, hahahaha!!! Love ya!!! XXX
Hello lovedogs, sorry your feeling down. We have a heatwave here in UK and people aren't coping, as we are so unused to it. I've lost many hours sleep. Walked round the house, read a book, had a bath. Anything to pass the time till morning! Aww well at least we Won the Football! ππ»βοΈDee
Football yea!!!! Awesome Deeππ That's funny I am struggling from the heat too. I sweat profusely 24 hours a day!! It is unbearable!! This morning I went for a walk and took two showers due to severe itching. It was a long morning wasn't it!!! Ugh and now the day! Heat ugh!!!
Unable to sleep, and next morning feeling flat can be problematic everyone feels low especially when this goes on for several days in a row
Trying to do things you enjoy, hobbies etc can divert negativity away and positive moods may return.
Understand as well if you eat late in the evening before bed your tummy will be digesting food when you go to bed, this will keep you awake as you mull over yesterdays problems and what is expected of you next day. Low mood can become self fulfilling.
If you must eat in the evening allow at least two hours for the body to digest the food, that should help you to sleep. Segment your day if possible to partake in different tasks
BOB
Thanks Bob! Ill try to eat earlier. Ill try anything to get some regular sleep!! Yea today feeling sick and a bit exhaustedπ²
It is terribly hot today, our Pax will not go outside because of the heat
Good Luck with above
BOB
I don't blame him. I'm outside waiting for phone company to open and sweating major bullets omg!!! Have a blessed day!!
Hope you get some sleep soon my friend!!! Have you tried any adaptogens like rhodiola rosea or Ashwagandha? In the past when I could not sleep they helped.
Hi Starrlight!! Ill have to see if I can afford those cause I just got melatonin and I took a handful of those and tried to sleep. May of slept half hour if that!! Ugh feeling exhausted and ill. How are you???
When was the last time you slept a good amount? Does your doctor know of the sleep troubles?
Im good thanks, hanging out with my kiddos. Enjoying morning π sun. My littlest starts a summer school program tomorrow. It will be good for him I
think. How are you?
Oh that's great about your little one. Staying educated is so important. My Dr I think knows I have hard time sleeping. I take every sleep aid I can afford. I take supplement true calm. It really relaxes me but I just can't get good sleep. Plus now to take adderall being a stimulant causes insomnia but I'm no way giving it up due to the benefits its already helping me with ADHD$! I can't tell you how wonderful it is to not be all hyper walked out with too much energy, being able to focus and pay attention. I always used to talk over my mother. I just couldn't stop it but now I listen like I should. Lol. So yea I can't give it up. Oh the cool part is the no appetite. When it wears off I eat like a fool. Lol. I'm glad your doing great!! Love those beautiful boys!!ππ
I hear ya about benefiting from the Adderall I wouldnβt want to give that up either.
Do you get feeling manic when you have lack of sleep? I find it can trigger it for me.
Have a beautiful day beautiful you!
Thanks for the kind words!! I'm not sure if I get manic but I do get hyper. I have bipolar 2 but the mood swings are minor. Right now I've got energy with nothing to do. I'm going crazy in here!! I already went for two walks so its like now what. I need a job badly. Once these meds are readjusted ill be going back to work. You always put a smile on my face and bring me joy!!! So thank you!!

I have bipolar but not sure 1 or 2 ... Iβve gone into psychosis because the mania was so bad but mostly it seems like quick switches from hypomania to depression. Maybe rapid cycling. Sometimes I think to myself these may be normal emotions unless it reaches a certain level of unstable. Interesting bipolar is.

Bipolar is very strange. Phones typing for me. Damn this shit phone!! Yea, My dad was bipolar 1 and he was very manic .or very depressed. I just get hyper and happy to slightly de,pressed..omg this phone is m,a king me so crazy. I'm waiting for Verizon to open c a use I can't tmake this anymore!!!
Its tough to say cause as you know its tough to get diagnosed correctly. I thought I was rapid cycling too
But now I know its bipolar2. Ugh either way tho!!!
Sometimes it feels like my thoughts are making me have mood swings but other times I believe the swings are due to bipolar. Hard to tell.
I'd say it might be just bipolar. Its a real pain to deal with cause one day I'm fine two days later I'm hating life!! Its just awful. Have you asked your doctor what he thinks? Just in case you are medications I'm on help tremendously!!
Yeah I should have a talk with the doc. Iβm already on lithium. I have been feeling better than I have in a loooong time so I donβt want to mess with the meds. But yeah would be interesting to see what he thinks.
Sorry about your dad suffering.
Itβs like I donβt even know what normal is without these symptoms of the illness and side effects of meds. What would it be like? Ya know? Who am I hahaha!
Just got back from Verizon! Got helped big time by this really nice young man and so far phone is behaving! Yipppeee! I asked for his name and gave him a wonderful review! I went in cussing and livid but apologized for cussing at him especially being the first customer. I felt so bad. Lol. I told him he was a lifesaver!! Really nice young kid!
Guess what ?? The phones typing by itself AGAIN!!! OMG I'm so beyond irritated!! I just want to scream!! Wish I was dead more like!! I cannot take any more shit in life!!! Do you ever get to that point where it seems like life only throws you shit and nothing good in return? I'm so sorry I'm not meaning to be nasty especially in front of you. I'm just a lost cause. Feeling pretty hopeless to say the least!!!π±π²ππ΅
I know right!!! I feel all over the place most days!!! My dad was evil so I'm glad he's gone now. He was a very mean person who hated me so no loss here!! Lol. Yes the illness is tough enough but the side effects are a killer most days too! I know what you mean!!
I really hate those nights that are difficult to fall asleep. I found this article that has some great insights on ways to help to fall asleep. You may not sleep, but at least you can try to lay still and relax. bit.ly/2IMagX9
I will be praying for you to get some sleep, relax, and feel well. Hugs to you!
Oh that's so sweet I will definitely check it out right now! Ill try anything to fall asleep. I desperately need a few hours at least tonight. I haven't slept good in a few nights now. Totally exhausted!! Hugs to you to my friend!!ππππππβΊβΊ
Have you tried medication? I know it is not always the answer, but sometimes it helps. I had to take Zolpidem a few times just to get some sleep, I usually take a half a pill. It is not the most fulfilling sleep, but you do get some rest. I also have found mediation calms the mind. In that article it has a great mediation resource. youtube.com/watch?v=Uq_vwOO...
Praying for a restful sleep tonight. Blessings!
Thanks I'm praying too!! I read it but th ode things never help me. Being completely exhausted is when I can get some sleep. I'm taking handfuls of melatonin but usually buy Wal-Mart sleeping pills but go thru 96 pills within a few days!! I was taking. Like 8 50 mg sleeping pills to try. And sleep. Sorry my typing is screw,ed up cause the phone types for me pissed me off. Verizon just said it was fixed and I guess not. Jus,t more frustration I don't need!!!
