at first i didn't want to take the medicine because it makes me very sleepy and drowsy but i started to take them because i can fall asleep very quickly. at one point i started to treat that medicine as my sleeping pils ( i can sleep for 10 hours if i take that medicine)

the problem is now when i want to stop taking that medicine, i can't fall asleep. i can't stop thinking this and that when i lie down on my bed. i can only sleep when i take medicine. i want to stop taking it because i don't think i have Schizophrenia. i don't have hallucinations or anything, i think my only delusion is i can't fall asleep if i don't that medicine
My advice get your education first , then see how you get on. It looks like your on these meds as a precaution. If I were you id take the meds through college
