Have you changed drugs? Increased? Abilify could sometimes make me feel incredibly restless---you have to find something do do that will engage your attention. Often simply leaving your current environment and going somewhere new helps. Sometimes watching a movie while doing something else like painting helps but your mind must be fully engaged. I usually needed something tactile so I kept silly putty and high bounce balls around to play with while doing other things.
