Are you taking both 2mg pills everyday? Remember your shot may be worth up to 10mg of haldol...I know you have some 5 mg in the house if you feel terrible take it. I remember the first time I tried to taper off meds I keep thinking it would get better after time...I lasted two weeks and they were quite possibly the most miserable 2 weeks of my life...I had to go up from 5mg abilify to 7.5 mg but not the full 10mg. The thing is when I went to 7.5 mg it was nice I wasn't full of anxiety like on five but I wasn't full of the need to be active like on 10mg so it was a balance. Personally I might take a 5mg and a 2 mg each day until you get stable that is much closer to the dose you were on with the injection but it's just for a day if you get too sedated you can just change to a lower dose again. You aren't going to lose anything by increasing the dose slightly in the short term.
