I actually was on Lithobid (900mg) when I tried this, like I said it did provide relief, just very short term relief unfortunately. Although on the second day of sleep deprivation I had basically a short period of time where I felt hypomanic and obsessively cleaned ( did about 5 loads of laundry, cleaned my car out sp*c and span , which I have not done in who knows how long , and cleaned out my junk filled closet. Previously I have been so fatigued its hard to think, let alone be very active.
The cleaning went on almost obsessively for several hours until the fatigue set in. Just thought that was weird b.c I am not a clean freak by any means . But hey, it was nice to get all of that done that I have put off for so long.
