Anybody struggling with schizophrenia?

[Miguel267]

I am struggling with schizophrenia. I can't get sleep. I have been switching meds for the past couple of weeks. Wish I could get more sleep.

Hi Miguel. Switching meds is always difficult. I pray you find the right ones. Do you have sleep meds?

[Miguel267 in reply to samack]

Yes I do. They have just started to work in. I am hoping for the best.

I’m not sure I have any advice to offer …but I am thinking of you and sorry you are suffering. I hope you feel better soon.

Try getting 40 minutes of cardio exercise daily to produce endorphins and tire you out . Try the Wim Hof guided breathing exercises free on you tube. On empty stomach. Rinse in a 5 minute cold shower after you shower. Google cold shower therapy for mental health.

Alright I will

Maybe give it some time, the meds can take up to 6 months to work effectively - depending on your body and routine etc x

I am schizophrenic. Med changes can be tough. Have you asked your psychiatrist for something to help you sleep?
