Hey, I'm new to this forum. Just wanted to know if anyone is taking saphris, and what you think. I'm loving it. I have never felt so grounded in my life...and full of energy. So much energy, in fact, that I almost feel manic, so I'm a little afraid that I might crash. Isn't that crazy?? I actually feel good so I'm afraid..afraid when I feel bad, afraid when I feel good that I might crash!! Can anyone else share Saphris experiences? Thanks.

I took Saphris for about a week. The sublingual dissolve kind before I went to bed each night. Apart from not liking the taste it made me super drowsy and I slept way longer than usual and was drowsy during the day. That was just my experience, but yours is obviously different. If it works for you, stick with it! That's all I know about meds. I finally found a great combo and I'm not messing with it. Best of luck to you that this is the key to keeping you grounded and happy.

welcome to the forum, I take this medicine but only at night time, an it does help me sleep at nights, I just don't like the taste it leaves after it dissolves. I am glad it works good for you to help stay grounded and happy.
