So I've been on this new medication, rexulti, fooor about two weeks now? I've very sorely needed an antipsychotic to go with my antidepressant. Um. Well, the side effects say you're most likely to feel dizzy and restless. And yeah. That's certainly happening.
So I've been taking my meds every day in the aftermewn, and I've noticed that something like 3-4 hours after I take them, that restlessness really starts to kick in. It becomes nearly impossible to focus on anything, and before I know it I'm getting up and moving around and I can't sit still. At that point I might as well go to bed to skip ahead to when I can do stuff, which is what I've been doing, but then, do the meds even affect me after I wake up? Is it all worth it?
So far I'd say yes. I've been feeling much calmer and much less terrified that everyone I've ever cared about is plotting something. But, uh, some way to deal with that restlessness would be very appreciated. Right now I'm just planning to take those meds later in the day. I'm just worried about, yknow, having enough time in my day when I'm not restless, without making the meds entirely useless.
