How many of you have a disruption of your normal sleep/wake cycle and energy/mood patterns around full moon? I am so sensitive to this and it happens to many of my psyche patients where I work. Not to mention that I am also sensitive to seasonal changes too. Last week prior to the full moon, I went 2 days with 5 hours of sleep and had good energy. I guess I should of taken one of my klonopin to knock me out, because I had a couple days of fatigue and felt like a slug afterwards.

They say more psych admissions on the full moon. I am not sure if it affects me. Love Phillipa

when i get to feeling completely nutso, the first thing i do is check to see what the moon is doing. i'm dead serious. that moon has a definte effect on my moods. i think it tends to make me meaner, a bit hypomanic, and certainly makes me wnat to get naked (i'm serious about this too).
i checked last night to see if there was a full moon because i've been feeling better lately. but, it's kinda 'mixed' between feeling undepressed, kooky, social and angry. like kicking toys on the floor--------ANGRY!!!!!!!

My mom, who used to work in a nursing home, remembers that during times of a full moon that patients were more prone to wander off out of the building, and also that more fires were set.
(Yes, it was an awful place.)I notice that it is much harder for me to fall asleep during the full moon phase.
