I developped insight into my addictions/hypersexuality caused by Abilify. I became stronger to control them. When on Abilify like last year, I left my friends in the nightclub many times with girls and went seeing hookers. All my friends called me and said why I left, they have good girls for me etc They still talk to me today but I only hangout with one in the mall from time to time. Now I think I can stay with them and never see hookers.
Is it possible to beat Abilify’s side effects with insight?
I don’t understand my sex drive, I was getting A’s in university and taking 5 courses/semester while seeing hookers every week. It just doesn’t make sense. My brain is unbalanced, my personality doesn’t match my intelligence. Hookers are dumb at school.
@77nick77 Do they have something similar to Alcohol Anonymous but for hookers? Like Hookers Anonymous. I tried to kill myself many times because I feel that I am a sinner in my family, I don’t deserve my family. I was born in the wrong family. Does anyone feel like that?
My family won’t let me take Abilify because it causes me risky and deadly behavior. Beating Abilify’s side effects psychologically is impossible even delusional.
Its not worth it, last time I was on it a pimp threatened me. I was taking 5 courses in university and getting A’s while on Abilify and while seeing hookers every week. This proves that Abilify is causing hypersexuality and that its not my personality. Its impossible to be hypersexual that much while being able to get A’s in university physiotherapy. Its dangerous.
Ah, I’ve never heard of it. There’s a Sex Anonymous.
Used to run into hookers occasionally in AA, CA and NA.
Since a lot of hookers use prostitution to support a drug habit I would guess they discover if they get clean and sober and live by the programs principles like anyone else, they are able to quit prostituting themselves and straighten out their lives.
Thanks, the best is to wait for Vraylar but it might never be out here. Ill wait until January and if it doesn’t come out Ill get back on Abilify and try to control my sex addiction as much as possible. I am not staying in bed all day all my life.
I would urge you to retry it. You are more aware and understanding how your body reacts. That’s good. Your body also changes over time. It might work differently and have fewer side effects. I think you should give it another shot. You are more self aware.
If you feel it begin to cause problems go off. But you do need to see what your doc says about it. Don’t be afraid. You know your body more than anyone. If your doctor says okay, then consider it. You are having to make a hard decision. Were here for you.
How about a lower dose of Abilify?
As for me i have to wait until this pandemic is over before my doc prescribe me Abilify, the good thing is atleast the doc agreed with changing med, from Olanzapine to Abilify.
