> > Yes, yes, yes. I have a slight case of ADD and Abilify makes it almost impossible to watch TV, read a book or concentrate at work. I find myself flipping the channels constantly. I can't seem to focus.

> Yes, that's exactly how it is for me. I mean, normally I have a hard time reading, sitting still, paying attention in meetings. But it's gotten out of control! I can hardly watch TV. Movies are next to impossible. I've been at a couple of plays recently and I found myself looking at my watch thinking "when is the intermission!" It's really really bad. I really hope that since now I'm off the Abilify, these problems will get better.
