Wow, let me give anecdotal approval to that! When I got to 60mg/day (not a huge dose) I would lie wide awake until 5 am. It was actually a bit of fun, as the hypomania allowed me to spin wild fantasies that were rather entertaining, LOL.

It never went away, although it did subside a bit. I was on klonopin, Ambien, Lunesta constantly to get a decent night's sleep. Not that I needed it to function, but I was very worried about my health getting 5-6 hours' sleep per night. (Sometimes as little as 3.5 hours, although I would take a major nap in the afternoon when that happened. Like a "dead to the world" nap.)
