You wouldn't be complaining because I've literally never been this stable...and isn't stability what we're all after? I understand my pdoc's position which is keep me stable and not mess with too much. It just sucks that I've gained so much weight.

If you're not taking it for that I really would try invega or something. Good luck!
I'm taking it for bipolar, not for sleep, so I can't really go off it unless I replace it which is what I want to do. Maybe next month.
Thanks for this!
