I started Saphris last night (5mg) and it certainly made me sleep, a bit too much.

I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and I basically sleepwalked downstairs to do so, came back upstairs and passed out on top of my covers. Today when I woke up I was unable to go to class or work as I was so exhausted that I could barely keep my eyes open, let alone get up and function normally.

I slept for most of the day today and I've been awake for the past few hours. The only other thing I've noticed was that I'm hungrier than usual, but I have no problem with that. I am feeling a bit less tired now, but it's almost time to take another dose of it so that's probably why.

Will this go away after time? I need to go to class and live my life without sleeping all day

Edit: I'm also curious as to what Saphris will do for my concentration, if anything--nothing I've tried thus far has made me able to focus on things properly, so I'm stuck in the mood of sitting in bed, eating, and doing hobbies that don't require much thought most of the time rather than doing homework or other productive things.
