I’m on a cto so no choice of switching but maybe eventually reducing would rather be free of medication, I was getting along okay and functional for years. I just had a terrible mental health team who blew everything out of proportion based on a past episode many years ago and were constantly looking for any tiny sign of psychosis, even lying in reports.
I’m on Abilify Maintena 400mg. I had akathisia at the begining.
did it go away completely? and how many months of Abilify did it go away?
I don’t know exactly. Maybe after four or five injections.
how long do you think it will take for you to be free from medication via cto?
I put in a request to change consultant, with any success they will see I didn’t have psychosis recently and long passed the risk period of ppp and let me taper off. If not I have to wait till september for next appeal.
Hey how do you find the 200 mg dose?
Do you feel good cognitively and emotionally?
Hey @folkusthesecond
Typically, we like to leave inactive threads alone and just start a new thread instead. This is different than how some forums are run, but we do it this way because it frequently upsets users to have old topics revived when they are no longer relevant. It can also be frustrating to the person who revived the thread when they don’t get a reply, because the original poster is no longer active or no longer finds the topic relevant. Feel free to start a new thread on this topic.
Thanks,
