Started Abilify Friday night. BIG mistake...I was up until 2 AM because I couldn't sleep. Then I remembered my Pdoc told me to take it in the AM because it can be stimulating.

So, took it Saturday morning, and slept almost 12 hours last night (I NEVER do that). I took the Abilify this morning, and I swear I could go to bed right now I am SOOOOO tired.

Anybody else have this experience? And if so, did it go away?

**yawn**

Well, I take mine at night because it makes me tired. But if you just started, give it some time, the tiredness side effect should go away. I noticed when I increased to 20mg., I was very tired all day, for a month. As soon as I decided to go back down to 15mg, I was fine.
