yeah...I think it depends. I'm not gung-ho to have somebody shoot me full of a long-acting medication, since it strikes me as controlling and potentially oppressive. But I'm glad its kept you relapse-free.
For me, I had to learn the hard way to stay on my medication :-(
But, lesson learned. More days than not, I take Abilify @ 30mgs. Even when I forget, the high dose+the long half-life=anti-crazy coverage. I'm hoping to get it lowered to 20 and add in a BZD, either PRN or low-dose, daily use. We'll see how that goes (or if I can even see my doc @ her private practice).
