Hi Lao,
Thank you for your helpful suggestions. Even though I've already tried many of the supplements that you've suggested, I very well might try at least some of them again if my vitamin D trial doesn't ultimately work out, and I'll try to remember some of the things that you said. Regarding Provigil (and thank you for mentioning it), I have not tried taking that medication itself, but I did once take adrafinil, which, if my understanding is correct, is the drug that Provigil (modafinil) is derived from. When I tried adrafinil, which I took alongside the Abilify that I take now, my psychotic symptoms seemed to become quite a bit worse 2-3 days in, so I didn't stay on the medication for very long. Provigil might still be worth thinking about, but my feeling is that its effects will likely be at least similar to those that I got from taking adrafinil.
