I am bipolar too, along w/ other things I feel where your at Jacquelyne, if you have some meds right now, go to your doctor and ask for some strong sleeping pills or get on different meds depakote can just straight out level you or it did for me.( I didn't like it to much cause it just stopped my thinking at first which I loved but then your so use to working that way that you hate it.) Thats all I can think of right now. Sorry . I feel so bad, you are just so depressed you wanna go to sleep. Then you have a manic high but inside your just sad overall.( or at least thats how I felt) I hope this helps. I'm always here to talk too. It's a personal hell and heaven to be bipolar.
