Again, I have gotten very little done on a Monday. Well, actually a bit more than usual, however it's still a pain in that ass that I start so hyper of Mondays and so many 'oh look at the kitty moments'. I believe that this happens because my schedule is back to what I consider to be normal. I get started with things that need to be done late in the day and I wind up getting to bed later. Saturdays, I don't get a whole lot done, other than paycheck weekend errands, because I believe that I'm catching up mentally/physically from living an early-in-the-day day instead of a later-in-the-day; any day that I don't have to work, my day tends to be 9am to midnight or 2am. I should do as the various articles I've read say: keep the same schedule every single day. That would be easier if I actually had a reason to get up, like going to a class or meeting someone at the gym.
This page pretty much describes me to a T. This one describes some of the symptoms from a Type I Bipolar (mania) point of view. Whichever one I get them from, probably both, it is really a pain in the ass. Although, my H may the the mania, meaning that I'm 'average' in the hyperactivity aspect, however it's still a pain in the ass. I already take the supplements described on the first web page, and that does help a bit for the first half of the night, however it does no good on Sunday nights because of what I described above. My mind is racing too much and I still have a lot of energy left. In fact, Monday is the day that I am late the most, because of not falling asleep completely until maybe 1-2am. Around Thursday, I have lived the early-in-the-day schedule, on top of already being tired from Sunday, and I often am late on those days as well. Between Mania, ADHD and taking adult blood pressure pills, I'm pretty much always late getting up, even in childhood. As soon as my sisters were old enough, they started leaving me behind so that they would be on time. By junior high, I had to ride a school bus, so I had to work harder to get to the bus stop on time. However, I spent the morning being tired. Around lunchtime or so, the mania/ADHD energy kicked in and I was again that forever-talking, fidgeting obnoxious un-liked person (no, I am not exaggerating).
