I take 2mg of Abilify at night and within 1/2 hour I am asleep. Sleep great all night.
Then the next day I feel a little hypomanic. I've only been taking it for about 2 weeks.
Why does this happen? It seems weird that it would make me soooo sleepy, then hyper.
Will this wear off? My nurse seems to think its akinsia (sp?)
What do you think?

Could you describe the hypomanic symptoms please?
There are all kinds of hypomania and sometimes they are confused with something else so I was hoping to get a better handle on what you are experiencing.

So much so that I work out now every morning. I feel hyper pretty much most of the day (talking a lot, being very social). I guess feeling like I have too much energy and then I crash at night and get very tired.
It's weird. I wish I could even out the great energy.
