We are going with the theory that the insomnia and anxiety are manifestations of bipolar. I should say that I get racing thoughts combined with the anxiety, it can definitely become some sort of mixed state if I'm not on antidepressants. The doctors here are pretty conservative from what I can tell, doing things by the book for the most part. When lithium and lamictal didn't work, it came down to valproate and Seroquel. My doc went on vacation, I saw a colleague of my doctor's that was more specialized in bipolar...he went straight to Seroquel because he said Depakote would do nothing for my depression.

I did not take Niacin yesterday and by the evening was feeling quite good. I decided to try 100mg Seroquel at least one more night. I dreamt a lot and woke up after every dream session. I don't know why my sleep is like this...it only started about a year ago. Before that I would have trouble falling asleep and trouble waking up in the morning.

I will check up on those meds you mentioned. I don't even know if they are available here or not.
Thanks again for the suggestions.
