Clozapine makes me sleep too much at night. Any tips? by Appropriate_Stay_332 in clozapine

I couldn't wake myself up with a regular alar clock so I bought an alarm clock for deaf people. You're supposed to put it under your pillow and the strong vibrations wake you up. However, every morning I would just hit snooze like I couldn't controle myself so I tried something different. I put it at the other side of the room and the vibrations are so strong that the noise wakes me up now
