Super Sleepy / suggestions...

Posted by sheilac on October 28, 2012, at 12:07:47

I take in the morning:

150mg Trileptal
150mg Lithium

At dinner:

150mg Trileptal
150mg Lithium

Since adding Lithium back, it has calmed me, but made me super tired. At night it knocks me out and I sleep great. But during the day I have no energy and focus.

My doc suggested Ritalin - which did nothing. I tried going back to Adderall, but that can cause some irritability - which I have under control.

I have become a crazy caffeine addict (which isn't good).

I get tired and I find myself drinking soft drinks and eating carbs. Not good for my weight.

Any suggestions?

I think it's the Lithium.

Since I'm not tolerating stimulants well, I still wonder about a low dose of Geodon. That gave me energy and didn't make me binge eat.

I know some people take Abilify, but I didn't tolerate that well (made me swell up, binge eat and gain weight).
