I'm wondering why abilify threads are popping up more frequently these days. Is it because I am biased to notice them? (I recently resumed taking 5mg after a 4month hiatis)
Is it because of the new FDA approval and advertisements as an augmenter for SSRI's?
Is it because folks are feeling down on other antipsychotic options?
Is it because of any particular nasty effects on abilify?
Personally, I would like to encourage people to give it a try. I have been on seroquel, geodon, and took zyprexa prn for a while. Abilify is by far my favorite.
I didn't get munchies like seroquel or zyprexa. I didn't get myoclonic jerks, tics, etc like I did on seroquel. I didn't get extreme low bp, and incapacitating fatigue like I did on geodon.
I take it at night. I am sleeping much better in the past 3 days, since I started taking it again. I haven't noticed anything major, in terms of side effects. I HAVE noticed that my busy busy thoughts and hypomanic energy is tamed. Yeah, I kind of miss it, but I was starting to get worried that I would do something irreparably reckless.
