I wear glasses but I find when I get tired my eye site gets real blurry.
Yes I have this too. I don’t wear glasses though.
It gets so bad that it makes no difference if I have my glasses on or not - all blurry.
Medication can cause blurred vision - very frustrating.
I tried explaining this to a doctor once - they were having none of it. But meds totally can blur vision.
My problem is the opposite I have to go to sleep each night never feeling tired. I haven’t felt tired in over a month. It freaks me out a little bit.
Are you on one of the ‘activating’ meds like abilify?
No I’m on risperidone and trazodone.
I found respiradone to be quite activating. Do you have akathisia? This can make sleeping hard.
No but I have itching. Do you think the risperidone is the problem I’m a little bit wary to try other AP because other than some of the side effects it works.
I can only say from my experience. I find the ‘high potency’ meds like respiradone and haloperidol to be activating. I much prefer sedating meds like quetiapine and chlorpromazine.
Thing is everyone is different. Like you say the respiradone seems to help you. I would give the current meds a bit more time. There are quite a few different meds which can be used off and on label to promote sleep. Talk to you doctor about it.
All the best.
Thank you I intend to bring up my issues when I see my doctor.
