I am a bit afraid of myself -- pdoc reduced meds

i was doing quite well on a high dose of abilify but i was often sleeping a whole lot.

my pdoc asked me to reduce my meds so i have.

now i am getting worried that it may be a big mistake.

my pdoc will see me in about a month. if i start to feel ‘wrong’ i am going to ask for my high dosage back

i have noticed psychiatry doctors often reduce antipsycotic dosage if you were stable i dont know why or if that aright decision or not. in my opinion if a patient is stable on certain med and a certain dosage dont mess with that.anyway i hope you be ok on that dosage and be stable.

Please do keep us informed

I don’t know why people mess with meds when they’re working.

That said, maybe you will find you’re stable at the lower dose

And you’ll have more energy too which is a bonus

Good luck!

Yeh low dose may not be doing you good. I tried low dose and failed 10 years ago.

hi green. it already ain’t working really well and i am :joy: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :heart_eyes: :star_struck: :upside_down_face: :grin: :blush:going back up to my regular old dosage.

i am kind of satisfied about that. more secure that way. it worked for me for years and years. so why tamper…
