All of the obove. And before I was taking the medication, I had no energy. AT ALL. it's never been easy for me to sleep, but that was probably because of it. After I'm energized ND cN concentrate. My ibs and anxiety doesn't affect me.

Just started my medicine ,but I have always had trouble sleeping and feel like I sleep much better. Also have been craving sugar. My memory recall I feel is doing better. As far as socially I don't feel like talking as much

You talk less when you're off of your meds? I feel like can't help myself from cutting people off because I get too excited about having something to say when I'm on my meds, but can't concentrate on a conversation if I'm not on them.
