Hello all, I am brand new to the site & learning to navigate it... anyhow, I have a med appt on the 28th & have been battling myself about going on them. I tried Abilify last year, but it made me really depressed, so much so that I literally slept every moment that I could & ended up failing school b/c of it.

I worry about short and long term side effects... I'm already spacey & tired all the time & don't have very much energy or motivation to do much of anything. My mind jumps from one thing to another & I forget what point I was trying to make in the middle of a convo, or my mind just kind of blanks out.. I worry about a lot of things, mainly money (but not to the point of an anxiety attack). I have no patience & can't seem to control my mood swings, they r ususally b/t anger & sadness. its like I get this rush of rage that I find difficult to stop. Uggggh.

I just don't know what to do... I'm happy and scared about getting on meds.

Does anone happen to have any suggestions that maybe I should try first or something?? Any advice will be greatly appreciated....
