I have been unable to relax or sleep without antipsychotic medication for last couple of years. I also receive a very strong sedative, but it doesn't work at all without combining it with antipsychotic medication. Recently I got a foot injury and got prescribed with codeine. I expected that Codeine might make me relaxed since it's an opioid. Instead I found that my body resists the effects of codeine. My neck muscle stiffens and my heart beat goes faster. It seems like some kind of psychological thing is working on my body. I am supposed to be relaxed and drowsy, instead I feel alert and tense.

You are alert and tense because your physical body doesn't have enough Vitamins and your spiritual body doesn't have enough of Jesus Christ in it.
Suggestion: Stop using medications, either Replace your meals or Add To your meals some fresh organic Fruits and Vegetables. Also, ask Jesus Christ to fill you up with His Peace and help you relax.

Since conventional medicines aren't working, you should think about trying some alternative. Get a spa nature sounds machine and listen to a relaxing sound.
Instead of the prescription pills, try taking one or two dramamine if you just really need help getting to sleep. They knock me out and I don't feel hung over the next day from it.

you need a new doctor to start other treatment or meds, You have taken the first step, you asked. Yogi and accupunchture are very calming , also a little water fountain bought form any dept store. Doctors don't know what you don't tell them.
