I like abilify. You're right about side effects, though...I remember getting weight gain and anxiety from zyprexa and hyper-sedation from seroquel. Sucks. But, I read about abilify and asked my shrink if we could try it, it was OK'd, and I've been pretty much OK since then. I also take ADs and a stimulant, so that really helps even things out. Abilify suits me best b/c it has anti-anxiety and anti-depressant properties that I need (I'm negative-symptom heavy).
