Re: Abilify for depression?

Hi Peter,

I've been taking Abilify for depression for about a month now. It helps with energy and motivation and works as well for depression as risperidone, which I was on previously. It seems to help all the "negative symptoms" which characterizes my atypical depression; even my memory and thinking ability seems better. My pdoc, who was on the clinical trials, said it markedly helped depression and negative symptoms in schizophrenia. If you do decide to try it, just remember to start on a very low dose (like a quarter or half of a 15mg pill) to avoid anxiety and insomnia.
