> Take a look at Saphris (asenapine) as a replacement for Zyprexa. It has both antidepressant and antipsychotic properties. I don't know if it helps with sleep, but it doesn't seem to hurt it. I someone who is doing very well on Saphris and Wellbutrin. She sleeps gets 8 sleep. It shouldn't be sedating. Cognitively, she is as sharp as a tack. She thinks clearly and has lots of productive energy. She has lost the weight she gained on Seroquel and Abilify.

I would love to be "sharp as a tack". I would welcome a clear thought. Unfortunately that's not in the cards for me when I'm depressed. Which is a problem. How does one do the necessary research and formulate the best plan of attack when in the middle of a brain fog?
Honestly. Its beyond frustrating.
