I slept for 17 hours

I slept from midnight to 5pm today, so i lost whole day. Dont know why i slerp so much, it must be the meds. I have to go back to work tomorrow, feeling useless.

Wow. That’s a long time. Do you feel ok? Are you coming down with something?

That would give me a headache.

That’s a long time. That’s probably not good for you unless you are really sick. Try keeping an alarm on so you get up at least after 11-12 hours.

Try to make a little plan about what you are going to do the next day to get the day going. It doesen’t have to be complex. Maybe just eat breakfast, take a shower, have a cup of beverage and read something or go for a walk.

I just cant force myself out of bed especially on days off. I take quetiapine at night which makes me even drowsier. I usually sleep for 12 hours but dont know what happened today

I have also done that in the past. Now I sleep about 12 hours a day (that includes a nap) and the rest of the 12 hours I’m fairy productive.

Maybe you are getting sick ? Or maybe it’s
Boredom ? Can you find something to do you enjoy to motivate you to stay up on your days off ?

Without caffeine I sleep all day, try coffee, tea, etc
Since I started drinking coffee I am sleeping 8-10h and no naps during the day.

I started drinking coffee since starting Risperdal, it makes me sleepy.

Have only slept that long after pulling all nighters for finals…

I slept from about 8:00 am to 4:30 pm. I get my days and nights turned around on the weekends. I will probably doze through day treatment tomorrow.
