"i was diagnosed with a mood disorder about 5 months ago. i tried abilify and gained 10 pounds in a week and tried lamictal but i kept getting the rash on my face, so finally my doctor put me on saphris. it made a world of difference. it&#039;s been 2 months now and i&#039;m no longer on any antidepressants and i have been without any depressed episodes since a week after i started it. i had to start taking 20 mg at night because it made me so tired in the morning. i&#039;m still on klonopin because i have really bad restlessness still, but i&#039;m slowly phasing that out with lifestyle changes. the bad taste gets better with time and the side effects are greatly outweighed by the benefits. i have and would recommend it!"
