Question: Was on olanzapine and it made me sleep like a baby!?
but I had to come off it because of too much weight gain so doctor put me aripiprazole which don't make me sleep at night for my sleeping he has put me on risperidone and i take zolpidem also but they do not help me sleep!.
I am on prozac (fluoxetine) and was wondering if i should mention to him if he could put me on a anti depressant that makes me sleep at night such amitriptyline I have never taken this anti depressant but on the internet it said that it makes you sleep!.
My depression comes and goes and I am on 40mg fluoxetine!.
would it look like an insult to suggest changing to another drug to my psychiatrist!.
and why did he not think of it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
By all means, talk to your doc!. There is a wide variety of drugs that can be used for depression and insomnia!. If you don't get proper sleep, your depression will only get worse!. You just need to find the right combination for you!. From your docs point of view, it would be an insult if you didn't keep him advised on how you're doing!. If you don't feel comfortable with this doc, change docs!. There's plenty of them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
