I vote taking it at bedtime. It might give someone else energy but is reacting differently in your system, if that does not cure the problem, you may need to c if the doc will lower the dosage slightly so you can function, until you get it in your system real good.

My psychiatrist told me to take it before I go to bed.  It helps with the sleepiness and nausea that i get when i would take any meds.  Hope this helps..

No, it revs me up when I was taking it. How long have you been on it? It takes a couple of weeks at least to get used to it.
