What to expect?I switched from Zyprexa…
I’m on Abilify since 2015. Abilify is for me the best medication.
im on abilif its good but can cause gambling problems
I take abilify, and it is the best medicine for me. Everybody is different, so you might get side effects.
I tried all meds so far,except Geodon,So I dont know yet how it will work for me.
If it offers little energy and lost of weight,it would be perfect…
@everhopeful ,are you on Abilify?
I got really bad hypersexuality on abilify. But other than that it worked well for me the first time I took it. But as soon as I went off it for a little less than a month it never worked again. Even 12 years later I tried it and it still doesn’t work and gives me terrible side effects now.
Sorry, @LED ,thats my last resort.
I think Id give it a try
Oh definitely try it! I was just saying don’t go off it if it’s working because it may not work anymore if you do.
I switched from Zyprexa to Abilify last summer. It works fine, after my pdoc adjusted the dose to 15mg. He started me on 5mg, and I was having symptoms on that low of a dose.
I actually got a pretty good increase in physical strength when they put me on Abilify, but it made me a little too jittery. They eventually had to take me off it.
I’ve got ten in morning,and think it will do.I was very horrible at pd’s,and when I got home,took first dose.
Then after I realized that of zombie feeling this morning,I forgoten to take other meds…
Im so overweight that no way Im gonna give up.
Yes,its bit like a speed.
The not working part happened for me too. I more or less only took it 3 days a week, and when I went back on it didn’t work even at max dose
Yes I’m on abilify. It raised my blood sugar levels and I have to take Metformin for that.
Tried it years ago. Gave me insomnia.
Yes,I’ll have to wait until night.
But,far better then sleeping 20 hours…
20 hours is too much.
Few hours ago I went desperate to pdoc office,and told her that Im sleeping all day,and Ive lost my routine,even forget to take other meds in morning.
I said only med I never tried is Abilify,so she gave me ten mg.
Two hours after Im cleaning the flat.Amazing.
I switched from Zypexa to Abilify about 7 years ago.
Abilify didn’t work and I became psychotic, had to go back on zyprexa
Didn’t have any side effects though, but I wasn’t on it very long.
