> Swapped the Abilify for Trazodone. This seems to be a good combo, 'cause my anxiety is about 50% less and the depression hasn't returned (generally speaking). Other good thing about Trazodone: is good for libido! (may be this is only for the ladies??)

Haven't heard of that one. As for men, it can cause priapisms, erections that do not go away and are not associated with arousal. If its significant, you have to have it operated (drained).

It did happen to me several times but I was younger and it wasn't a particularly severe form, but I was only taking a sleep level dose. Not saying everyone will get it, its just something to remember.
