Hi, I'm new here and could really do with some advice.
At the moment I take 900mg of Seroquel for disordered thought/psychotic disorder. It works really well but the thing is it has recently been linked to Diabetes, with or without weight gain. This is in my family so I am terrified of getting it. I basically told my pdoc that I wanted to get off it as I am not prepared to take the chance. I also take Klonopin and Xanax for anxiety disorder.
What I would like to know from people who have switched from Seroquel to Abilify, or anyone who feels they have experience with Abilify is -
1. what should I expect?
2. what dosage would you recommend to start with?
3. what helps or helped you with the side effects?thanks a lot,
Jack
