I’m on a bunch of different medicines. I’m on clozaril, depokote er, geodon, Zoloft. The issue of course is sleep. I often can’t wake up right. My psychiatrist doesn’t seem to want to change the clozaril. If I’m correct they use this medicine when others fail. My psychiatrist also tried to reduce the depokote er and my moods got worse. When everything happened with covid i was then put on geodon. Before that Zoloft for the ocd. And I take a thyroid medicine in the morning. I’m just worried about how I sleep and how sedated I get. And I’m afraid these medications won’t change or can’t be changed.

I'm on Rexulti, Cymbalta, Trintellix, Vyvanse, Latuda, Xanax, and Lunesta. I also take Blood pressure medications and cholesterol medication. And Asthma medication. I'm fairly stable though so I don't worry too much about it. Do you sleep a long time? The Lunesta that I take is a sleep med. But I usually need 9 to 10 hours a night.

Meds get improved. Things change. I'm on latuda. That's it, it works for me.
