Insomnia is a great contributor to mental instability, even if you do not have schizophrenia or any other mental illness. But it can also be an indicator of some disorders like bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, etc. I was plagued by insomnia since about the age of 16. I was diagnosed with sz in 1995 and finally found relief with Zyprexa and Trazodone, and now Clonazepam. At 40mg of Zyprexa, where I started, made me get way TOO much sleep. But now I am down to 10-15mg and it is no longer a problem during the day and I sleep great at night.
