I cut back when I switched from 10mg Zyprexa to 5mg Abilify last May. I started hallucinating and got paranoid. My pdoc had to up it to 10mg. I occasionally hallucinate on 10mg.

Usually the first symptom is paranoia then along come voices. I hope I can snap out of it quickly and resume the previous dosage if that happens.

I’ve been doing pretty good mood wise and I’ve been thinking about cutting down on my Depakote dose.
But after some more thinking I don’t think it’s a good idea.
But yeah the temptation exists.

Great to hear that you’re doing well!
My greatest temptation to come off meds is actually hair loss! Even with all the other side effects I’m so keen on having hair on my head that that is my main reason. My pdoc gave me the green light to come off meds whenever I’m ready.
I also miss the natural connection to the whole universe and stuff you know just that feeling of things flowing more easily in terms of spontaneousity and zest.
I miss jogging and my focus clarity too in particular
And being able to enjoy things more and socialise more easily
