Well, I explored Saphris as thoroughly as I could. When I first started taking it, I experienced a significant improvement in depression during weeks 2 and 3 of treatment. Unfortunately, this did not last (tachyphylaxis). Instead, Saphris made me feel worse. I became dysphoric, somewhat diroiented, and experienced suicidal ideation. As an experiment, I discontinued it. I felt better within a two days. I then rechallenged myself with it after a few more days had passed. Within 24 hours, I began to deteriorate again.
I hope others have bettet luck with Saphris than I did.
