Insomnia

I've heard it's a rare type of insomnia. There are people who haven't been able to sleep at night since childhood for no apparent reason, like just lying awake all night without thinking about anything.

PD: I'm asking this because it's apparently called idiopathic insomnia, and it affects less than 1% of the population, and it's confusing because it's slightly different from all other types of insomnia.

My experience with my bipolar 1 for the first time experience it alone..If you have bipolar disorder 1 or 2 that’s real your are not crazy don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise cause I just had a really hard time with my very first symptom of bipolar 1 and let me tell you when you are alone and no one to talk to you about or you know someone who lives with it and you yourself helped them through their episodes of bipolar and even though they aren’t together or whatever you can’t call or contact them because they basically don’t care after they promised you that they want to remain friends at least but I couldn’t find a single person to talk to me to help explain what was happening to me for about two weeks straight and I was utterly alone and yet somehow by the grace of god and my sister thank you so much sis and they helped me they believed me they were the only ones who believed me but I had someone who did not understand and I didn’t either but I worked through hard and researched things I was feeling at the time at its peak of my bipolar the very beginning and learned what was going on with me that everything I described in my research said without a doubt everything the first paragraph said Bipolar disorder and I have bipolar disorder 1 and I have gotten better im not 100% but I am better than I was before and I am sleeping at or trying to get a routine back having insomnia extremely but I am trying to stay on the routine and I haven’t had anything else pop up with the disorder besides one episode of what I learned is real called a latch on my bipolar brain latched on to someone’s brain emotion and I knew I was gonna feed off that not purposely it was intentional at all but I knew that it was gonna happen and it did happen I could not stop it I couldn’t stop it but I pulled through that night in control of everything my bipolar didn’t control me I didn’t let it happen. But I did say I don’t my private life on social media but this here having bipolar disorder it’s something I am not ashamed to admit that I have it’s real and other people out there have either bipolar 1 or 2 and so I wanted to share some of my experience not all of it but a little bit cause I had nobody to help me through mine but you who ever reads this message share it if you think it’s inspiring or whatever but everything I said here is real I live with bipolar disorder 1 and you should not be made to go through it alone like me you should have someone who understands or believes them but in the end of the day if did go through it alone then you got this you can pull through cause you’re not broken at all you are just going through one piece of what bipolar is and you will be okay. Thank you who ever reads this message or not at least it’s out there for whoever reads this message. I’m here if you need to talk to if you’re having an episode of your disorder and you’re alone I will gladly do my best to talk with you and tell you the truth and tell you that you are not broken and be there the best way I can a listening ear! Thank you have a great day 😌😉

Hi, my name is DFern17. I'm here because I want to learn more about myself and my Partner. I have ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Periodic insomnia, Trich (hair pulling madness), Processing disorders, and Borderline Personality Disorder. my wife has ADHD, PTSD, Depression, and is on the Autism Spectrum. I’m worried about how my disorders are affecting my relationship with my wife… we’ve discussed divorce once and she decided to stay. I’ve been doing my best to work on myself. I’m learning to stay grounded, and stay calm during high stress situations. I’m hoping that I can get some insight into what might help me continue to improve in my behavior, while making sure my wife is more comfortable as well.

I've been in Therapy with this Therapist for 3 months. I've tried meditation, journaling, praying, on my own. Despite it being stagnant and ineffective I kept going I didn't give up. She however did. I feel devastated. I wish I could get that time back. I've had many Therapists I've been in Therapy for years it never worked. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm still in the process of getting a Primary Care Physician. I'm not on any medication. I don't know what to do. I didn't give up. And I'm not giving up. Therapy isn't working. I dedicated too much time and effort and energy and it didn't pay off at all. I'm not giving up. What are the alternatives and options that for Therapy. I have to keep going. I've been and remain completely sober and I am proud of that I know that mental illness and substance abuse go hand in hand. I'm trying to make sure I stay safe happy healthy and protected despite having no support system. The system in general has failed me. Yet I persists and I'm going to keep going. #MentalHealth #Depression #Anxiety #OCD #Insomnia #Autism #ADHD #AspergersSyndrome #Meditation #Meditation #Bipolar1
