As a 58-year-old woman dealing with bipolar disorder, I understand the struggle of sleeping too much. It can be frustrating and isolating, but I’ve learned that it’s important to be kind to ourselves during these challenging times. I’ve found that setting a consistent sleep schedule, incorporating regular exercise, and practicing relaxation techniques have all helped me in managing my symptoms. It’s not easy, and there are still days when I feel overwhelmed, but I’ve also discovered the importance of reaching out for support. Whether it’s through therapy, support groups, or simply talking to friends and family, connecting with others who understand what I’m going through has been incredibly valuable. I want to encourage anyone else dealing with excessive sleep due to bipolar disorder to seek help and know that you’re not alone in this journey.
