I took it in high school. I’ve tried more powerful antidepressants. It was good wasn’t bad. One night I ended up getting extremely drunk and after that I just quit taking it.
I just started taking it. I really like it. However when I was taking it in the morning it made me unbelievably exhausted all day. Now I take it at night and I’m fully awake all day. So you may have to play around with what time of day you take it.
Also, I have to have a mood stabilizer with it or I will definitely go manic. I know this because I accidentally forgot my mood stabilizer for a couple days and I got so wound up I had to stop taking part of the Zoloft until I got the mood stabilizer back in my system.
I took it a while ago for about 2-3 years. It does help anxiety and depression. However I did have SE between that and Saphris, not sure which or if it was the combo of the two that caused problems. Then I think I became tolerant of it and it stopped working. Moved onto Wellbutrin and Xanax for anxiety and AD.
Like I said, with Saphris, my SE were: incontinence, moaning in my sleep, sleep paralysis, sexual side effects. The urinary problems ceased when I stopped taking the combo of meds.
