i think...it kinda happens a whole, whole lot, especially when you're dealing with anti-seizure drugs, antipsychotics, sedatives and hypnotics, etc. blah. :-(

i take abilify and prozac. my sleep is...far from ideal, but i'm able to get enough. i have crazy insane vivid dreams though.

with the antipsychotics, the goal is supposed to be Lowest Effective Dose, because these drugs are -heavy- artillery, even the newest ones. not that they're evil, horrible drugs, just...proceed with caution. there are lots of people out there on the antipsychotics who would be better off with a different sort of drug or...no drugs, honestly. true story.

i do think heavy-duty antioxidant supplementation has helped -me, personally- , and that's just -me- , speaking of -personal experience- , nothing more, nothing less.

speaking of antipsychotics...I think there's a 'sweet spot,' assuming that its an appropriate choice. personally...dip too low on dosage, i get a sense of doom and trepidation (weird)...too much and I just slow down, at all levels, and gain weight.

hope this helps. glad to see you're back posting. :-)
