> Thank you so much for reporting your benefit- I have social anxiety and ADD Inattentive. Adderall's okay, but I still have a huge problem in convincing myself to go to the library and just study. It's awful.

> And I'd love to socialize more. I was thinking Abilify might be good for this, and your post really helped me to think I might not be overly optimistic here. My side effect problem is usually vivid nightmares or sleep, but hopefully take it at night will overcome the potential for over-sleeping/tiredness.

> I have to introduce speakers in a lecture series in 3 weeks. I'm seeing my doctor, he's probably going to give me a low dose of Abilify. I read a thing from the director of the clinical trials saying that it works as early as 7-10 days, and the patients were more energetic, talkative and cared about their hygiene. Cool.Im thrilled you are thinking of trying this out. Obviously you need samples, I started out at 15 mgs and had the best day in 6 months after about the 7th day of the initiation period. I went to a movie and dinner alone, (cuz My dad was having a cocktail party ) and felt VERY assertive and at ease. Its a partial Agonist of Dopamine,, according to my brother Utopizen, the NOBEL prize winner that discovered SSRIs and Dopamine,,,, Some swedish Guy is praising Abilify. it is a new Generation Antipsychotic
Just take mega doses of Vitamin E and Vitamin C to prevent movement disorders, Check out this research
Abilify does make you HUNGRY as a horse, which I enjoy,, GOOD Luck asking you doctor. utopizen
