Abilify update

Medications
1

I’ve only been taking it for 9 days but I can tell it’s working out better than the 5 medications I was on. Those totally blocked everything out (including my ability to use higher levels of consciousness). Abilify seems to help let me keep the ability to use my head in order to seperate what is real and what isn’t. I haven’t gained weight yet (on zyprexa, I gained 20 pounds in a week). I don’t feel sleepy all the time and other weird side effects aren’t there.

I’m going to give it more time, but so far I like it.

I also have Abilify. I like it too. Much better than the other meds I tried.

I am on 10mg of Abilify. Its pretty efficient. And 25mg Seroquel for sleep.

Id love to stop the Seroquel and lower my dose of Abilify to 7.5mg over a few months.

I’m still on 25 mg Abilify and 200 mg Seroquel. My pdoc says I can’t lower the dose. Not yet.
