> I was SURE I was going to stop giving ben his abilify. He has been on 2.5 mg. a night just for 2 nights, down from 5 mg. a day 3 days ago. He is still like a zombie....flat affect. I even called the pdoc to tell him I was stopping giving it to him. I guess in a week or so I can see how he is and if I have to, go back to 2.5 mg? HELP!
> eliseThere was one thing I forgot to ask in my last post, and it had to do with Trileptal. You folks quit it because you thought it was causing manic symptoms, right? You said that he was talking a lot after he took it. Was he talking in a relational way (but perhaps pressured and elated), or was it talking "just to talk" stuff? The reason I ask is I am wondering if the Trileptal was doing some good in some way at *some* dose or other and now it's gone and perhaps he is not doing as well without it?
