> Before Wellbutrin = Too much way too much
> Before meds = Too much, I used to smoke a lot of pot. Befor that I still sleep too much. My whole life I have valued my sleep way too much. I always get ripped out of bed, no matter what I'm taking, ever after/during a 24 hour++ crack binge. Even when I took 15mg Abilify with Zyprexa. 1 hour after taking Wellbutrin mid day/late day/any time day. I love sleep.
> Now = I wish I got more but I have to get up for work every day and be there at 8am. Sucks. I always sleep in on the weekends, won't see me up befor 9am even if I wake up early I go back to sleep.
> The only time I remember sleeping 14 hours was years ago on the Zyprexa I hated it couldn't understand. I remember days that I sleep for 24, hours think I was taking 15mg Zprexa then. My doctor first prescribed 15mgs at suppertime: What a big mistake, I made movies of myself eating(thats focked up), went right to sleep after a big supper in my brothers bed(sleep till about supper the next night), It was soon decided that I couldn't take 15mgs. 10mgs still sleepin hard, but atleast I didn't sleep all day (the dreaded 23 hour sleeps), 14 hours sounds right Infact thats probable what I remember. I soon got mobile again(out of the house 24/7) working: always late for work 3 years of being late for work three years of ignoring the alarm clock, three years of only 10mg Zyprexa, 3 years I didn't understand 14 hours sleep was a side-effect, 3 years of always trying to denigh that I was tired all the time so my doctor wouldn't give me anymore medicin. Shurly that would have been a bad thing, hated meds still do. Why have I been damed for all these years and other peoples mistakes. Shurly I didn't create any of this, just happened. Bunch of ......freinds...what did they do after that...nothing good just left me to rott on medicine. 7 years.????!!!!

> I take it back, it was just as bad, just differently. Things were better on Zyprexa than Abilify. Things were also better on 10 mgs zyprexa than none or for a while 5. It didn't work for me to drop from 5 to nothing, major sleep problems(none). Then when I went back up to 5 mgs it was not enough for me, had to be 10, didn't feel right. 3 years of no break from zyprexa, 0 was a shock!!
