'Abili-Quel'

Apparently, lots of people are on Abilify+Seroquel. Googling it, I found that there are some reports of Abilify helping people stabilized on other antipsychotics (I saw one about Haldol; I don't recall any w/ an antypical).

Anyway, the combo could work. If you keep the seroquel dose low, its more of a tranquilizing antihistamine. Abilify is supposedly stimulating in higher doses, but I seem to recall relief from psychotic depression @ 7.5mgs/day. Then again, I was "neuroleptic-naive" (previously untreated with neuroleptics) at that point, I may just have been more sensitive to the medication.

I personally think you'd benefit from the standard dose for Abilify, 10-15mgs. That should calm you down a bit without sedating you.
