So yup…im not oober young or old so i hope no "flirting with death" will happen…man now im *more*paranoid D:

I’m a big guy and I know that affects it. I want to die peacefully in my sleep, but I’d prefer it happened in my 90’s. Any ideas on treatments? I want to get back on an excercise routine (I used to be an athlete), but that’s hard when you are dead tired all the time. Anyone else know the feeling?

It is so hot in my apartment I have not slept well in over a week. I am moving in a couple of weeks to the east side (to a deluxe apartment in the sky) so there is no need to buy an AC for a few weeks, are there any other suggestions?

I am under a ton of pressure. 3 Master’s classes, during the summer. I am so tired, but I can’t sleep. So here I sit, reading often stupid adolescent questions and answers, wondering why these kids are even allowed on a computer. Does anyone agree?

Also, how can I fall asleep again?

And finally, does anyone intelligent want to chat?

Is it possible for my teenage nephew to have insomnia and if so what can cause this and what can we do at home to help this problem?

I want to know if it’s safe that i’ve had to take it almost everynight to fall alseep.

I stay up sometimes until 5 or even 9 am and then I lay down all day in bed but only sleep for 2-3 hours if i’m lucky but I’m too tired to get up so I lay there wide awake thinking to myself till about 2pm -I get up from bed feeling all sluggish and crabby and in a bad mood and a little sad like I wasted my whole day and then it starts all over again in a nverended cycle it been going on like this for four months -what can I do to stop this - serious answers only please

I’m diagnosed w/ a ton of things, the main being bipolar II (also borderline personality, apeothetic narcolepsy, anxiety disorder, and am under testing for possible epilepsy). Lately, I’ve noticed my sleeping is erratic…I’ll go and go, but not feel tired, until I finally just drop. Then, I sleep for at least 12 hours. I’ve having weeks at a time where I only sleep every 2 days. I’ve been manic, but I’ve never done anything like this. However, I’m not more energetic that usual…in fact, I spend most of my time watching movies or on the computer, for hours on end. I have to force myself to take showers, brush my teeth, etc. Occasionally, I am able to do one item of housecleaning around my home. Right now, I am unemployed due to these problems, and having trouble getting into a therapist. I don’t really know what’s going on, it’s like being extremely depressed and yet highly manic at the same time. I’m unmedicated and have not been able to afford treatment for some time (although this recently changed). I guess my question is, what is going on?

PS I’m not having all or even most of the symptoms I have with either phase, just some symptoms of both. I’ve also been rather apathetic and somewhat hostile, and uninvolved with those around me.
diagnosed as bipolar 7 years ago. borderline shortly thereafter (less than a year). narcolepsy was about 3 years ago, epilepsy is suspected since jan.
And I wouldn’t describe myself as ‘a mess.’ In fact, I’ve never heard someone with any knowledge in the psychiatry field use such a term.

Since first grade my parents have known I’ve had terrible anxiety issues. And I guess after first grade it kind of not went away but was under control. So, we thought that was then end of it.
Back in September, I started to have really bad anxiety attacks and my parents took me back to a psychologist and we found out I had bipolar, which runs in my family. From September until January I had tried 5 different medicines, none of them really worked and I haven’t taken them since. I was okay with out them for a while, since they weren’t really to control depression issues but the manic side. I personally don’t want to take the pills because I don’t like how I feel when I’m on them, and the depression isn’t a problem right now. But since I think February my sleep cycle has been really messed up, when I was on meds. my sleep was under control. But I can’t sleep at night, and when I do normally get to sleep it’s around 5am. (Back in September my parents pulled me out of school because I had missed to much) I don’t think it’s insomnia because it will be like one day I won’t sleep at all, the next day I can sleep for over 14 hours, the day after that I’ll have normal sleep and then it will repeat. My parents have been worried, but since I have been getting work done and my sleep is the only thing thats really messed up they haven’t been pushing me to take medicine. My sleep pattern is starting to bother me, and I don’t want to have the constant changes in it.

To the question, are there any natural, or alternative treatments for bpd? Medicine right now is not going to be an option. I’ve been looking into alternative treatments, and some say a good schedule will help. Any tips on how to help get my sleep pattern normal again?

Thanks.

he the problem… my friends and family think i have OCD, i kind of agree, and is seeking help….i tend to get aggravated when things are out of order or missing…some say I’m too much of an perfectionist, example: ill rewrite an essay all over if i like mess up or if it sloppy…. i sometimes cant sleep or concentrate on a task when i know something misplaced or out of order…. is there any kind of treatment for this….
