I was put on it for mania when I was inpatient.
My pdoc recently switched me to abilify after trying a few others. I would never go back on seroquel.
I'm the exact opposite. Abilify ramped up my anxiety and increased panic attacks. Like, I remember going to the grocery store and ending up huddled in a corner and chewing at my fingers.

It's interesting how people are so different.
