Congrats - Hehe. Keep going at it! You will be off it in not too long. Just wondering though how your achieving your 2.5mg? From what I know, the pills abilify comes in 2,5,10, and so on with 2 being the lowest. Are you cutting your 2's in quarters?

for me, I am on 7.5 right now and getting to 5 in about 2 weeks. I'm doing 4 week increments. And I think a good idea is to stay on your lowest dose for a longer time to see if symptoms improve and then - you take it every other day and then every third to really make sure it's successful.

And to Girlafraid, I understand why you may have came off cold turkey. At times, the thought of having to dose down so slow can be very depressing and hard on someone....
