I’ve been up since midnight

My sleep pattern is still irregular despite me upping the clozapine. I wake up anywhere between midnight and 10 am.

I literally don’t have any clue when I’ll wake up when I go to bed (usually between 8 and 10 pm).

How’s your sleep pattern like?

Mine’s gone to shite since reducing the risperidone damn akithisia lol. Carbamazepine is my hope now i’m trying to adjust it better to my actual pattern and see if I can fix this. Even though I shouldn’t play that much with the med, i’ll have to research it and see if I can even do something.

I’m not familiar with carbamazepine but I googled it and it says it’s an anticonvulsant that is also used for bipolar disorder.

What meds are you on? When I was on a regular dose of clozapine I would sleep 16 hours a day.

Are you a night owl that sleeps during the day and is awake at night?
