A member asked:

How do i get my sleep schedule back on track after exams?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Schedule: The best thing to do is get back to your normal schedule and get to bed at your regular time. Avoid caffeine for a few hours before bedtime and avoid naps. It may take a few days of doing this before you are back on track.

Will quality of sleep stay the same if I switch from Zyprexa to Geodon? I have a sleep tracker that shows I get very good sleep on Zyprexa. I switched to Seroquel and sleep tracking showed poor sleep. I want to switch from Zyprexa to Geodon?
