I had Abilify added to Lamictal and Wellbutrin last January. It made me anxious (first time I'd experienced anxiety) and more depressed. I changed pdocs, and as I talked about where I was at, specifically the above, he immediately said "the Abilify is causing your anxiety and worsening your depression." Got off it and the anxiety went away almost immediately. The depression lightened too. Your mileage may very, but I thought it telling that he immediately pinpointed the Abilify as the source of my anxiety.
