I was feeling ok, then took my morning abilify and now it’s anxiety city. I took it with 400mg of L-theanine which used to work like a charm.
I had a dose increase to 15mg recently so I think 400mg l-theanine isn’t enough anymore. I’m not sure I want to bump L-theanine up to 600mg twice a day.
Has anybody switched to Rexulti from abilify? How did it go?
I have had abilify. But I went from Haldol to rexulti. The rexulti stops me from completely obsessing about killing myself all the time. I don’t think I have any side effects from it. You might be really happy if you try it but it costs about $900 per month so I hope you have insurance.
If that happens it would be too good to be true
I’d like to give it a go too. Hopefully won’t have to wait forever
Do you build a tolerance to it?- Can it be addictive?
Yes and yes I think.
I am not addicted to it. Maybe because I don’t have addictive personality but wish i could take a lot more because it helps me a lot.
Rexulti’s great for me- no akathysia. Thank god.
That’s what I’m hoping will happen for me too !
Do you have some idea when it’s coming to Europe? I’ve tried googling when it will come to the UK but nothing has been particularly clear
On rexulti I gained quite a bit of weight. It was harder to know which dose was approprite for my symptoms. I had a lot of breakthrough symptoms.
And a strong feeling of cheap artificial happiness which made me feel sick.
Did you ever try aripiprazole? If so did you gain weight on that, and have these other problems too?
I’m interested because I found aripiprazole either didn’t change my weight or lowered it when I tried it so I’m hoping it would be the same with this one
