I'm also not completely exhausted if I have a late night and have to get up early the next morning. If I get 5 hours sleep I am tired but it is not debilitating as it was before. I can get through my whole day and take a nap when I get home from work to replenish my energy.
I am finding work much more tolerable in of itself as well. Looking at a whole days agenda doesn't get me overwhelmed as it did before. I just tend to tackle one thing at a time, and move on.
I also seem to tackle projects with much more enthusiasm and passion. I can spend a whole day on something and my energy won't wane, when before I could only spend around 2 hours of focused attention then I would be exhausted.
My fear of the future has also diminished somewhat. I'm not so much concerned about what I'm going to do because I have so many more internal resources at my disposal now. My memory is getting better, I have more prolonged attention and am better at mult-tasking, and energy to burn.
Social interaction is also much easier. I don't know if it's me or what, but I seem to be getting much more attention from women lately. I must be projecting more of an air of self-confidence. I doubt it's paranoia that people are watching me. hehe
I'm sure there's many more positive benefits, I just can't think of them now. The important thing is the lack of negatives. My sexual dysfunction that I was experiencing before is almost abated, and the dry mouth is hardly noticable as well anymore. I'm sure in another month they will be gone completely.
