> What condition are you treating with Abilify?
>The Md calls it confused thoughts and Schizoaffective,, I call it Schizoaffective depression, I get that flat affect, color distortion, paranoid feelings (which are easy to hide), have trouble following the thread of conversation. IT flares up for no reason. If I DONT lift weights, IT flares up, I think its viral in some people!!!

Since December 10th
> Can you describe in what ways it has helped you?
>Helps bother positive and negative symptoms... ITs NO Miracle tho SLS< somedays I feel lousy, as if I didnt take anything, I did have 2 great days right after I took it. soIm Hopeful
> How much are you taking and how long did it take for you to see results?
>Within 4 days I felt better.. Strangely lately I havent felt like I even took a dose,, Im still readjusting. The side effects are very mild for me

Lexapro worsened my symptoms on 5 mgs in one day, thats an easy way to get a diagnosis,,, Lexapro felt like a hard drug! LOL. so SSRIS all cause me symptomatic Troubles, Im forced to avoid them and take abilify @ 22.5 mgs a day. ITs supposed to be a new generation of Atypicals according to this research Manual I got from the MD
