Maybe you should switch again. Abilify? Its not sedating ((usually))...if you want, you can start low (2 or 5 mgs) and move up...I think in psychosis the target dose is 10-15mgs/day; you can go up to 30 (sometimes more for some people). If you have anxiety problems, that could get worse for a while on abilify...a benzo would help, so see if your doc would rx one.
Is your doc monitoring your TD? TD is kind of a big deal, so she or he needs to be looking at how things are going on a pretty regular basis--AIMS tests every couple months, that kind of thing. If this isn't happening, you should bring it up or see if you can get a doc who will do a better job of providing for your care.
Good luck!
