Had my Lithium increased, had my Neurontin increased from 300 3 times a day to 600 3 times a day, stopped Xanax, now stopping Seroquel and going up to 20mg of Abilify. All of this within a week! Damn!
What’s your diagnosis, if I may ask?
Schizoaffective Disorder/Bipolar 2, depending on which doctor you ask.
Wow, that is a lot of changes all at once. Hope it all works out!
How is the Abilify for you? I’m guessing you had been on 15 mg? I’ve taken the oral, now I’m on the Abilify Maintena injections, and it really has been the best AP for me, especially now that I can no longer tolerate Zyprexa (akathisia).
It’s working great. Very happy with it. I haven’t gained any weight. The only thing for me is I have more trouble concentrating than before. But this is the first drug that completely got rid of my positive symptoms so I’m definitely happy with it.
I liked abilifys ability to get rid of my positive symptoms and I feel like it helped a little with my negative ones too. But it was just way too sedating for me, I could sleep for days!
