I take an antipsychotic and an antidepressant. Chatting to other outpatients today, a lot of people seem to feel over-sedated (e.g. waking up in the morning and being clumsy/walking into things/feel sedated for a good few hours).
Though it seems to be a widespread issue, the only ways people suggested of dealing with this are:
i. Go back to bed (not an option for me)
ii. don't do anything requiring any fine motor/thought until the afternoon
iii. Take less meds that they're given (I really do not want to become unwell, so wouldn't do this).
Does anyone have any good ways of getting rid of this feeling, or the effects of it?
