> 80mg's Prozac
> 50 mg's Nortriptyline
> 1mg of Risperdal
> 1 mg of clonazepam 4x daily
> 50 mg of topomax (which keeps me feeling steady through the day...I've tried the before/after thing)
> I also have 10 mg of Ritalin to take 2 x daily if needed...I wonder if that will make me crave sleep more at night.You could try this homemade algorithm:
1- Take all your clono at night.
2- Ritalin gives me also insomnia. You might try one week without Ritalin and see.
3- Increase Risperdal to 1.5 mg.I would not touch the Zyp. Its cognitive side effects are worse than Risperdal.
