I have had excellent results with Abilify! I went off of it due to financial reasons for a short time thinking that it wouldn't make any difference. Well it really did. I promptly went back on it and felt so much better right away. I did ask my pdoc about taking it long term because it works so well for me and he told me no problem. He was very optimistic that it would continue to help me. I am functioning and living a full life now. As long as it is working for me I am happy! Tuti
