After 50-100 it doesn’t make a difference for sleep, only for psychosis

Nozinan (Levomepromazine) 50mg is the first and only med that puts me to sleep, and sleep all night until morning
None of the others worked for me.
Makes you feel groggy in the mornings, but apart from that I highly recommend it

I may be talking nonsense.
If I had insomias, I would try to avoid computers and smartphones 2 hours before going to bed.
Maybe you could try doing some relaxation exercises for sleeping or you could try ASMR on youtube. It is very effective.
Anything that can excite the brain should be avoided.
I’m sorry, I didn’t answer your question about medication.

I use Mirtazapine, it’s mild and good and works for sexual dysfunction caused by ap’s or other ad’s too.

Probably 2/3 of antipsychotics make you sleep half the day or more.

yes im on 800mg of seroquel (quetiapine) and 20 mg olanzapine and i have to admit im not one bit tired during the day. At night i do sleep for 9 and a half hours…thats what i need…i dont think it is alot…the positve of being on AP’s is that i get to sleep real quick , within 5 minutes…whereas when im not medicated it could take me at least an hour to get to sleep

Imovane… But its a sleeping pill, not an ap. Its addictive
Me too even the zyprexa doesnt put me to sleep, i am so nervous and anxious i guess. Plus i dont move much in the day, while we need it…
Seroquel is prescribed for good sleep too though…
