Was taking Zyprexa 5 mg for a year and all was ok, but it was giving me amnesia, which was unacceptable for job reasons. Switched to abilify 10 mg, took it for 3 weeks, together with the zyprexa, no problems there at all. Then stopped the zyprexa and went solo on abilify 15 mg. after 3 days without any side-effects, I started having mild to medium anxiety/akathisia, which is bearable, but annoying. Doc has told me to use a little diazepam, at my discretion, to alleviate it. Some questions: 1)does anybody out there have a similar experience with abilify 2)how long can i expect the anxiety/akathisia to last?
