Good for you. We all need to self advocate and often need someone to advocate for is.
Is she bipolar 1 or 2?
Abilify is often used as an augmenter to an antidepressant for depression.
It is an atypical anti psychotic and if she had psychosis in manic episodes or psychosis in deep depression it could be for that.
I suspect the abilify is being used for an augmenter for depression and he would put her on another anti depressant. Usually they give you a new one to take at the same time you stop the old one.
The only think I can think is that she is bi polar 2 and the inderal is for anxiety. Probably the mania part isn't bad or she would also be on a mood stabilizer like Lamactil.
