I heard about absence seizures so I was wondering if anyone has the same thing. I'm 14 male and I will respond to comments. Thanks
Also wondering do most people who have them respond to things like loud noises??

before 2013 my location called this medication induced depersonalization. now with the new diagnostics where dissociative disorders have to rule out medications being the cause it isnt called that here in my location.
now symptoms caused by starting, or being on medications is called ....medication side effects...not dissociation due to adjusting or changing medication solves the problem of medication induced problems.
my suggestion is contact your treatment providers they will be able to adust your abilify or change you to a different medication so that this side effect no longer happens.
