Randy, sounds like you and me are going to e walking similar roads. I've been on nortriptyline forever, had been on klonopin about as long. Been on lamictal better part of the last year. Just moved, new pdoc. He's putting me back on klonopin and starting me on abilify. I'm thinking from what he said that he'll be easing me off the lamictal as I go on the abilify.
From what I remember about possible side effects, take the klonopin and lamictal at night. I really can't say how sedating they can be -- serious, serious case of PTSD here and before I got on mood stabilizers I'd spend 2-3 days awake at a time. Getting 6 hours every 24 has been my definition of "heavily sedating" recently.
Anyway, I may be posting my own item soon about the abilify since I'm completely unfamiliar with it, but after reading your post I had to say something.
