> hey ritch-
> just got a call from the teacher. I don't know if i mentioned it today or not, but I didn't give ben his 2.5 mg. abilify this a.m. (just the zoloft). Guess what? she said "So far he's his old self",,,but the problems have been in the afternoon, so i will know more later. Could the abilify be causing him depression?????????????????
> eliseHis symptoms really sounded like irritability to me-he might have been a little depressed as well, but it reminds me of my irritability spells I get-sometimes they are "noisy" and sometimes I just get quiet and steam. I haven't tried Abilify and I don't know how long it takes for it to peak in your serum-it may take several hours-in that case it might be Abilify causing the trouble in the afternoon. Perhaps just the tiny dose at bedtime to help him sleep would be all he needs?
