Problem is that when I just take meds at night, next day after 3pm ap blood lvl goes low and I sometimes get mania/hypomania symptoms, restless, random ideas, impulsivity, etc

Splitting dose into morning and night stops manic symptoms but makes me depressed. I read that APs can cause depression by lowering dopamine.

Yeah I was drinking too much coffee.
Both my doctor and therapist told me to cut down on the caffeine consumption immediately.
Instead of 5 to 6 cups I’m down to my regular 2 cups of coffee.
Sometimes I’ll go to 3 cups but no more than this.
I was becoming stressed out.

Same here, I’m trying to cut back from 6 cups of coffee a day to 2-3 and stop chain-smoking, I reeeeally wanna quit smoking cigarettes.
My dad never picked up the vistaril. Getting pissed off now. I’m so sick of not having transportation. I can’t do anything anymore.
