"been bipolar for seventeen years, saphris for two months, started out eating right after i took it and i was very sleepy.  the eating eventually subsided but within ten days i started having jaw muscle tension.  at first i had energy and the racing thoughts and paranoia went away.  the sublingual dosing and taste seemed to be minor in the hopes that it would help symptoms.  i would take it at night only, after getting everything done for the evening because it really made me sleep deeply, within fifteen minutes, when i really didn&#039;t have a sleeping problem before taking it.  it did make me more alert during the day, which almost led to panic on several occasions.  it was addressing psychosis symptoms but i continued a low level of depression"
