I am really not sure if it was a mistake to be put on this antipsychotic as my body has now became reliant to help me sleep. A few days ago I tried a entire day without taking the medication and I lost control of being manic and unable to sleep pretty quickly, and it worries me that I wont ever be taken off it. One day off it and I was buzzing around the shops, singing out loud and dancing all day. I haven't had any natural sleep for months. I know I should take my medication, but I just feel so weak to be dependent on it to control my moods, thought process etc. I do however exercise and try to have a healthy diet. But it still doesn't change the fact that my body has become dependent on it for sleep.
Does anyone have this problem where they can't sleep without it?
Sorry for the rant. Ahahaha.
