Yeah....I stopped taking it last night....I found it was just looping me out too much! I mean, I couldn't even talk on it. The only reason I was prescribed it is because insurance wouldn't cover Abilify without me first attempting a different AP.

Friggen drug had me unable to even communicate, and it scared the hell out my wife. She said, I wasn't making any sense on it. I couldn't do anything at all, but lay in bed, with spordic surges of needing to do something....

Drove to get groceries and everything looked all bring and shiny -- I mean almost psychdelic-like.

There was no way I could go to work on this drug....

My communication issues: I would be internally searching for a word, but could only say a word that was loosely associated with the appropriate word -- it was schizo-affective like behavior, like I was only able to communicate via abstractions and allusions to the concrete thing in question. Very odd....and scary...

That's not helping me, that's hindering me worse than I was without the meds.

I was put on this med after a two day ordeal of sheer dispondancy and paranoia I was going to lose my job....*shrug* --

Today, not having taken the drug since yseterday morning, I feel like $hit.....bad guts, nausea (no vomiting yet), blurry vision, shakey hands....inablity to focus on anything for any period of time.

Have an appt with my T today -- I will ask about the drugs then.



Phew...what a wild ride this weekend was.
