I see Scott's point too... one just never knows. I would never have known what akathisia felt like had I not stayed on those 5 mgs :-). I would always have wondered if I should have just sucked it up more...so you have options.
Yes... Devil and Deep Blue Sea options, it seems, sometimes!
> Try to give the higher dosage of Abilify a few more days. You might see the depression and anhedonia improve. Cognitive side effects often dissipate. Making a dosage adjustment is nothing more than an experiment to see how your unique physiology reacts to it. In the absence of acute akathisia, it might be worth the extra time so as to draw reliable conclusions.
