Hi Kiya,

I was on Abilify and noticed a significant difficulty in controlling sounds that my mouth made. Also had some weight gain, and bad tremor. I HATED all 3 of those side effects, others (which I can't recall) were less significant and liveable.

The tremor I think was the worst side effect, as it took being off the Abilify for a few months for that effect to stop! Not being able to produce speech was another biggie, but that effect turned around quickly. I quickly went back to normal weight.

I know that I've tried Tegretol, but I don't recall any side effects.

Best wishes to you!
