OTC hasn't worked for me, that's the problem. And why I'm on the thorazine for sleep. The abilify hypes me up so much that I physically can not sleep, I don't need sleep, I don't get tired. In addition to that I've also tried trazodone which I had a weird reaction to, and benadryl, and zzzquil, melatonin, there's another one but I forget the name of it etc. My insurance won't cover sleep meds either so that's also not an option. Thius the thorazine. And I'm stuck on these damn meds that made me gain weight, I'm pissed about that. Every time I try getting off any of them I end up with psychotic symptoms, agitation, and not sleeping for days.

I'm sorry, I'm not angry, I'm just tired of this and feeling very agitated. I spent the whole night up contemplating
Possible trigger:
. I got 2 hours of broken sleep last night and got a 30 minute nap today.
