I have bipolar I, mixed severe. PTSD.
I feel alot of anxiety very easily.
Depression was my life for a long, long time. The relief from it is very new.
I have quite a number of special needs. Sometimes I get pizzed that I have to be so daggone vigilant about so many things others take for granted or need pay no attention to.
My main goal now is to keep a regular healthy sleep schedule.
With changed curtains in the bedroom....from blacked out windows to light curtains and shades that let the sun in in the morning I get to wake naturally and at a normal time.
It is way too easy for me to stay up late but I have been putting myself to bed like a child LOL
I still tire easily but I am also still in recovery from a bad bipolar episode that required hospitalization.
Napping gets very tempting...but having just regained the ability to sleep normally in, like, forever.....screwing that up is too costly to me...so I come here to SR.
Really the hardest thing is to catch myself from staying up too late.
I liked staying up and being in the dark and quiet and alone and isolated.
Not healthy tho, not at all.
