Honey, that’s definitely the Zeldox talking... if it's hitting you that hard, maybe try asking your doctor about switching to a different antipsychotic.

One of my main issues was being incredibly drowsy. After I slept all day the other day (woke up at 4 PM 😁), I skipped my morning dose of Xanax and felt fine. This current "Zeldox sleepiness" is nothing compared to how tired I used to feel.

I’m trying to follow the rules regarding meds, so I'll definitely tell my doctor today what I did with my Xanax dosage. Hopefully, this drowsiness doesn't get any worse.

Zeldox, 80 mg total per day.

And I've got Xanax prescribed at 0.5 mg three times a day.

I can barely function right now. I skipped my afternoon dose, and this morning I only managed half of it. Now I still have to get myself and the kids ready for tomorrow and shove them into bed.🙂

Thanks for the reply, I’m seriously out of it 🙂 and I had no idea antipsychotics could knock you out like this. I'm still new to all of this, even if my symptoms make me feel like a veteran 😁

Last night I only took half a Xanax, and did the same thing this morning.

I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't spend money on anything... Just the antipsychotic and a 0.5 dose of Xanax. Took it at 8:30 AM and slept straight through until 4 PM. 😲
In my case, it actually worked because no matter how much sleep I get at night, I’m always wiped out and drowsy during the day. But is this sleeping thing just going to be my life now?!
