I have been taking this medication for about two weeks, I feel like woke up from a long sleep. I am more alert, to complete tasks, more friendly. The bad is I have had trouble staying asleep. But the good out way the bad, I like it a lot. I hope it stays this way.

Asenapine (despite tasting awful) has completely rid me of psychotic symptoms. However, it makes me sleepy, knocks me out at night and sometimes it's hard to get up and go to work if I'm so tired in the morning. And I have Tardivo dyskinesia of the tongue. But other than those two things, it's reduced anxiety and psychosis completely.

It does make you sleepy. Haven't been able to work or do much of anything due to treatment resistant depression. This med take away the racing thoughts and turbo anxiety.
