Hi, Scott. I had tried a few other ADs years ago, including Wellbutrin, and don't remember why it was not right for me. Tried Tricyclics even longer ago, found them both agitating and sedating at the same time...imagine being a zombie who needs to bounce off the walls.
Just found out today that the pharmacist managed to get a one time override for the Abilify because the insurance co. denied it. And, apparently, the insurance wanted me to try something else first. Well, the something else is Seroquel, which I know I won't take because I accidentally took it a few years ago when a different pharmacy gave me a vial of Synthroid with a few Seroquels mixed in!! They look almost exactly alike, unless you look real close at the writing on the pill. What an awful experience!! Depersonalization...suddenly felt like my arms and legs were very far away from me. Felt totally bizarre and zombied out, slept 24/7 for a couple of days afterward. And besides I haven't heard that Seroquel has the same mobilizing effects that Abilify does.
