It made my avolition a little better (maybe because olanzapine was making me too much sedated). It also helped lose weight.
Are u already on abilify? It gave me restless leg syndrome for the first two months

Abilify is an ok med. I tried to make work.hopeful for better options.
It gave me restless legs too.
I’m currently back on abilify. It knocks me out so I take it at night.
I used to be on Abilify but it had not affect on me. I wasn’t responding to it so I was put on Saphris. I have heard that large doeses over long periods of time can cause paralysis.
I was on the Abilify shot for a while and it helped me sleep really well but in the hospital I got switched to Haldol and Vraylar. The Vraylar makes me want to eat EVERYTHING, and it’s really expensive, but it’s helped a lot. I gained 8lbs in a month. Anybody else tried Vraylar? I’m curious about other people’s response to it…

I thought abilify was going to help but it didn’t. Now I’m on good ol haldol.
I ti take abillify as an injection it works wonders its non sedating and seems to do a good job. No weight gain too. Id recomend it to anyone although ive only been on two meds ever and they both seemed to help but i do like the abillify better than olanzapine good luck. Im having a bit of a rough patch but i know todays reality isnt tomorrows im hoping i dont have to go to a stronger medication because the one im on is quite nice.
