Question:
I am looking for some information about being Bipolar and depressed? I need an
article that would say A depressed person may spend all day in bed. Or
something like this.
Answer:
From experience only, staying in bed depressed is very true, I do it
and in a hospital once a fellow depressed patient spent all day in the
sack, he came out only for meals. Now they make you attend therapy
sessions on demand. I literally slept for 72 hours when I was in the nuthouse once. They
said they were concerned that I slept so much. I would wake up to eat
and then back to sleep. It was kind of cool.
In my younger years it was not unusual for me to sleep 12-14 hrs a
day... depression.
