 

For those of you suffering from insomnia (like me):

"If Sleep is a Problem, the Illness is Not Yet Controlled"

\- Dr. Susan L. McElroy

A hard truth. She essentially says that a sleep med does not address the underlying problem, which is the disease itself. Insomnia indicates the need for an additional mood stabilizer. Continue working with your psychiatrist.
