sleep-cycles and antipsychotics

Posted by lostforwards on October 26, 2004, at 14:09:01

Would it be bad to take an antipsychotic at night and then switch to taking it at morning, THEN, because of insomnia, add a low dose phenothiazine to sleep?
Would't it be like just pushing dopamine levels down lower and lower? I'm asking because the first night of trying a phenothiazine my mind was completely blank in the morning. I continued to take it at random, and found it very difficult to sleep without it.
After quitting the meds: Risperdal used to put me to sleep at night at the start. I tried a low dose once again and now instead of doing that it keeps me up( and makes me feel better instead of worse ).
