Oh Christ SP.. It sounds like a good idea.. But am scared cuz I'm doing so well in general - Just when I was on 2mg of risperidone, I always stopped it from tiredness.
I went around a year without the stimulant and I was also so tired. I spent a long time just sleeping 16-18 hours a day (But I was on equivalent of ~30mg Abilify every day).
You're right though - The psychiatrists always up the dose of meds.. It's insane.
Imagine.. 5mg of olanzepine and atenolol.. maybe a sleep med. Possible low dose stim. It could work. I'll keep it in mind if things go too south =[
