Hi all. I just started taking abilify today. I took it in the morning and about an hour later I felt completely high off my butt. My head was literally buzzing. It was so weird! I couldnt even drive to the store and had to turn around to come home b/c I was afraid id crash. I wasnt by any mean drowsy but just felt woozy almost like a dream state. It wore off about a few hours later and now I feel completely fine.

I have always been extremely sensitive to psychiatric meds and I'm a diagnosed hypochondriac.

Did this happen to you when you first started taking a new anti psychotic?

Im thinking maybe its just going to take some time to adjust my body to the new medication?

I have a history of stopping medication because of stupid things that scare me a little. I really want to stick this one out but not if i feel high when i take it.. Thanks!
