What is to be gained by doing this?
I don't get a good feeling about "pulsing" Abilify in this manner. It might prevent a homeostasis from being achieved, thus leading to greater mental instability. How about 10 mg every day?
An abrupt discontinuation or precipitous dosage reduction of Abilify might provoke a mania that is being misinterpreted as an improvement in thought clarity. In schizoaffective disorder, I have seen schizoid psychosis develop quite predictably after mania (especially with anxiety) is allowed to appear. Coming off of Abilify probably feels "good" (mania) at first.
