antipsychotic drugs are better avoided in pregnancy.. but due to lack of large studies their side effects on foetus have not all been documented clearly wth statistical precision.However, if your psychiatrist feels that continuation of treatment is more important, please defer planning a family for the time being.

As far as these drugs are concerned these are given only when necessary in pregnancy. As you have not given your medical history in detail it is difficult to say anything. Qutipin 25 is not to be stopped but if you didnot have any attack from past one year then aripmt can be gradually reduced and stopped. But exact advice can be given only after your complete medical history.

Have a positive attitude and go back to your doctor as it requires some patience and some lifestyle changes. Maintain good sleep hygiene (learn about it from the internet ). Learn some relaxation techniques (or learn yoga ). Consider adapting a daily physical activity (exercising everyday can be a very good sleep inducer ).
