I'm 5ish years into 30mgs/Abilify daily, and no tics, no twitches, no stiff walking, etc.

I take the GNC Mega Men 50+ Vitamins. I think I need the max formula with high doses of B Vitamin Complex. I'll have to make a trip to GNC and get the Mega Vitamins and a bottle of protein mix cause I don't always eat properly. Thanks for you reply!
