I’ve been so tired lately. I don’t know if it’s my meds or what. I’m wondering if it’s the Thorazine. I used to be on 400mg along with another 1st generation AP and a mood stabilizer, I don’t know how the hell I managed to function or ever wake up then. Now I’m just on 200mg Thorazine, 15mg Abilify, plus a mood stabilizer and ADs. I fell asleep this afternoon for 2 hours even though I slept all night last night. I could barely keep my eyes open. The problem is when I’m off these meds I don’t sleep, at all. I stay up for days or only sleep around 3 hours a night every night so that’s not good either.
There’s gotta be some way to make myself less tired. Coffee doesn’t help because I consume a lot of caffeine and have a high tolerance for it.
I managed to get on the treadmill for 30 minutes today. Also did some reps with my 8lb weights and a lot of squats with my resistance bands, trying to get more active and lose some of this weight I’ve gained since starting the abilify.

Yay for your new glasses! What a fab feeling.
Miss M.! Hahahaha!!!! She's so funny
Tired...yeah, probably the thorazine. What can I say, except you're in the right club. No AP, no sleep. AP, sleepy all day. Caffeine doesn't do jack for me, either.
But you did so well with exercising! Wow, hug yourself for that!
