Still, the combination worked for me for a while.

At 30mgs, Abilify is more anti-manic than for low end mood problems, but I do find that it doesn't --cause-- depression or make depression any worse, which is a good thing. Seroquel made me horribly sad, and zyprexa gave me akathisia, so abilify has been my go-to tranquilizer.
Your reply is very clarifying. Thank you. Do you take it PRN?.
