6

Only because I’m getting side affects

You’ll relapse on 5mg. For sure.

10mg is the minimum dose for schizophrenia.

I dont know though as I’m quite sensitive to meds

I hallucinated heavily on 5mg. 10mg is better, but not good enough.

10

I dont hallucinate or hear voices I just have delusional thinking

11

Is there a 7 .5mg

12

It takes away delusions for me

13

I’m just hoping it’s not schizophrenia

14

Could be delusional disorder

15

Do you think it’s worth staying on the dose I’m on 300ml of abilify maintena

16

I’ve heard some people using 7.5mg, but you’d need a pill cutter

17

I suppose so I’m just really scared of relapsing

5 mg does do something for psychosis.

However for me with time I got really stressed and the psychosis creeped up on me slowly and methodically. Same went for 10 mg and 15 mg. But this effect was even more pronounced at 5 mg.

20 mg has ALWAYS been the dose for me. Sometimes I’ve tried more, tried less. But it’s a true tell of the tale that 20 mg is perfect for me. Always has and I hope it always will.

Maybe you can get on with 5 mg. Maybe it will break you down with time.

I’d be lying if 5 mg did NOTHING for my psychosis

Although clearly was not enough for me

I’m on 10mg. It is the minimum dose for schizophrenia.
