I'll chime in, because I'm about 3 months on and remember exactly what you're experiencing. While Squid is probably correct about the meds not working just yet (and the great advice about making sure you check in with yourself), I now believe what I experienced on day one was happiness that I was finally taking care of myself.
I'm doing so much better now, and with CBT and the meds I feel like I'm finally enjoying my life for the first time in years. So enjoy your sleep, you've earned it by taking a huge, important step.
