I tried it and I liked the activating feature of it, but it did ■■■■ for my voices and I was still significantly psychotic and delusional on it. So I got off of it.
Sharing some experience about the minimal dosage for long term treatment.
Got to 5mg of Aripiprazole after being a year on Olanzapine 5mg.
Felt a huge change.
It’s pretty weak so I got manic and psychotic at first, but now it’s under control.
It still taxes cognitive abilities but way less then the previous drug I’ve been on.
Guessing that without it I’d have trouble managing mania and some sz symptoms. It’s good to have some sort of a safety net.
Go for it if you think your case isn’t that bad or you feel like you can handle some symptoms and side effects people have already mentioned.
