Ok so I have several MH problems and maybe this just goes hand in hand with the PND and psychosis, but this is getting to me now :(

I am on a mood stabilizer ( going to be changed in a few days plus add venlaflaxtine going up to 400mg again :() and sleeping tablets Zopoclione 7.5mg but my sleep is awful :( I sleep maybe 2-3-4am till 9am ( rubbish when you have a baby that's awake at 5-6am) hubby and my parents help out because even if I get up before then i am so groggy, swayyy, disorientated.

I have tried the whole sleep hygiene thing, going to bed at same time getting up long relaxing baths-with lavender oil, Tv off an hour before bedtime (10.30 ish) hot milk, oveltine. we have window slight open ( not on busy rd so not many cars, blackout blind up getting up if i cant sleep after 20 mins-I come on here. Since my PND depression I cannot read books. Sometimes read a magazine. For the last 2 weeks I have not napped in the afternoon-I will have 30 mins to an hour when my parents, auntie are here when LO has a nap. Its made no difference-In fact my voices are getting worse :(

With my voices we ( family members and the MHT) have noticed that when my sleeping is rubbish my voices are rubbish.

Any ideas anyone. Anyone else found anything to help?

Thank you xxxx
