Feeling drugged up and sedated. Welcome to abilify 15mg I guess

So it’s been about 3 weeks now. Things have stabilised on Abilify 15mg. Previously I was on 10mg.

I just feel drugged up and sedated. The crap thing is that this actually feels like an improvement. Lol.

I can’t focus on anything and can barely think.

Maybe in another 3 weeks it’ll improve.

I’m on 20mg Abilify injections now…

Hang in there! Eventually, like me, you’ll get used to being miserable! :slight_smile:

I felt drugged up on higher doses of Abilify.
I guess this could be a good thing.

No, definetely not a good thing. If this is the new normal it sucks. 10mg was too little and 15mg might be too much. I can always try 12mg. So long as I’m over or on 10mg I keep myself out of hospital. So I have room to experiment.

I know it takes a while to adjust to a med increase so will give it another month at least.

Yeah you can certainly try 12mg but I would give 15mg more time.
You might get used to it.
