I am getting down on myself. I feel in a weird state of consuming anxiety. I had some mild hallucinations when I closed my eyes to try to sleep. I haven’t had hallucinations since 2011. This is all a lot right now.
I took abt 5 mg of Abilify in addition to my normal Caplyta. I talked to my dad, and we decided since I took Abilify with Caplyta before (as prescribed by psychiatrist) that I should be ok. I just wanna relax. Time to switch back to Abilify, I will call Dr tomorrow.
It’s hard. I use a radio to wind the mind down. Maybe try listening to some music and just get through the rest of the day/try something to relax you and keep you grounded.
I’m glad you recognise you may need help and contact your doctor. Try to relax till you talk to them!
Just remember it will pass.
Feel better soon
Hope you find some peace of mind @cathart1c.
best of luck with switching back to abilify… i hope it works out for you =)
Thanks guys.
Called doctors office and talked to front desk. She is gonna try to get in touch with my psychiatrist and get back to me later today. She said if things get bad again tonite then I should go to ER
Doc got back in touch and I am going back on Abilify. Starting with 15mg.
Last night kind of sucked too though, to be honest. I felt on edge and couldn’t get any sleep. If tonite is bad and I can not relax at all, I am going to the ER.
That is too bad. I hope you feel better and don’t have to go to the ER. 
Are you staying on caplyta too?
Hope things go smoothly for you. With the medication.
No, doc said to stop taking the caplyta and switch back to abilify.
Thanks, I am kinda nervous to go to the ER. I don’t really know what they can even do. I have never been hospitalized before for sz so that makes me anxious
Isnt he going to taper you off first?
Caplyta is weird coz it only has 1 dose level and u do not have to taper at all with it.
Just got back from ER. It went very well, everyone was super nice and told me I seemed like I was actually doing pretty well. The doc was able to get in touch with my psychiatrist and they decided to put me on trazadone to help with my sleep.
Also thanks for the support guys!
oh that is really great =)
Glad that you went to the ER and get some help. You did good @makebelieve !
That is not @Zoe it is @cathart1c. They have the same avatar. It’s confusing. 
haha yea… thanks for saying @GrayBear =p
I changed it… haha sometimes the avies here are confusing me =D
I just changed my avi to help with the confusion : ,P
Wishing you all the best. Try relaxing, everything will be okay!
