    :hello: Everyone :)


    I am ok,I was fine when I saw my mum but when my dad came in I changed suddenly and said I wasnt well :( I started to cry etc and went to my room and had a lie down.Mum suggested I try to go out but I didnt go as I felt so tired,I had a sleep till 2pm then I felt well enough to go to subway for my meal,treated myself to a doughnut and had a coffee out.

    I then came home for another bit of sleep and slept until 6pm and now I am staying awake until its time for bed again.Dont worry everyone its just my bipolar thats making me sleep more,I get so frustrated as I so wish I could go a whole day without sleep and sleep properly at night,we are going to chat to the specialist when I go again that I am sleeping in the day to see if they can help me.

    :hello: September blues hope you are well too and enjoying the weekend :)




    love and light,

  • Hi Tulip, I'm ok just feeling a bit down. Is it your medication that makes you sleep? Are you on amitriptyline, that's one for sleeping hours and hours. Since I came off it I can't sleep at night, such a pain. It gives me photosensitivity so I can't take it during the summer.......................

    I tried StJohn's Wort and it made me sunsensitive. I did feel better on it but as it made me feel better, I kept going outside and it I was sore - so stopped taking it:(

    The sun has helped me feel better today - I do get irritated by bugs and crowds tho', so was nice to stay in.

    I think a lot of last week's blues were caused by the gloomy/rainy weather after such a sunny spell beforehand.
