Hi rjlockhart,
I think when I wake up it feels like a chemical thing...cause it's immediate..then it is followed by negative thoughts then more bad feelings...like a cycle..
I am bipolar II....I don;t know if I am supposed to take stimulants...but that is a good idea.
Thank you for your suggestions!

Lamictal is something good, but I don't know if it would help because it's effect's are not as "noticable"
