Hey guys! So this past week or so, my depressive side has been flaring up again, so I'm assuming my medication cocktail isn't working as well as it should be. Does anyone have any experience with Abilify? My doctor seems pretty reluctant to utilize antipsychotics since I had a bad experience with Zyprexa, but from what I've read, Abilify seems like a godsend. It won't make me slow and doped up, it won't pack on pounds, it doesn't increase prolactin, and I've seen from research that it's pretty good for both bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder (which are the two main suspects of what I have.) Of course, research is great and all, but I'm wondering if you guys have good experiences with this medication? The only thing that worries me is that I have pretty severe anxiety, and I don't want it to make it worse. But if it does, I can just use the Klonopin for anxiety and stay pretty balanced. Wellbutrin usually makes people with anxiety even worse, but 150 is enough to give me a bit of a kick without making me jittery. 300 mg is a totally different story. Any experiences would be appreciated. Thanks!
