have you tried any other meds? Not all are so sedating like abilify for example.
Though I havent been on that particular med, I agree with the suggestion of trying other meds. I am on a different med and I dont have sedation. I did have sedation on both quetiapine and risperidone though.

Also how long have you been on it? If you have been on it for a short while in most cases the sedation wears off a little once your body gets used to it. If it is in the early stages I would persist with it before talking to your doctor about changing meds.
