Hi. Bipolar disorder has a relapsing remitting course. Every individual is different so frequency of mood episodes are also different in every individual. Medicines both terminate the mood episode as welll as it prevent the further recurrence. Keep in touch with your doctor he will adjust your medicines as per your status.

Dear Lybrate-User,
if the diagnosis is schizophrenia, the medication will be, most probably, life long. The tablets you are taking are not sedating. Your 11-12 hours sleep may be due to no work to do, not taking up the responsibilities, lazing in bed by habit, not finding pleasure in activity, etc. You need to undergo psychosocial rehabilitation without stopping these tablets.

We understand that you have been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and it is not unusual that people with this problem take medications for a very long time, probably for a lifetime. However, like your psychiatrist has rightly advised you might want to decrease the dose to find out how you function on a daily basis while being on the lower dose before going further. The medications that you mention are the usual medications that are used in schizoaffective disorder.

Hello-
Anti-depressant/Bipolar disorder drugs have certain chemicals in the composition such as serotonin, melatonin, dopamine, inhibitors, tri-cyclics, etc. that severely affect the emotions of love in both the males and females along with decreasing the sexual push or aggression, thereby degrading the conjugal life of a couple to a large extent.

Lithium level is normal only, so lithium can be continued if other blood parameters are fine. On your mood symptoms discuss the lack of improvement with your treating psychiatrist, and try alternate medications if needed. Being open about no improvement will lead to the doctor taking note and doing away with medications that do not work. All the best.
