I'm just starting up, a bit over 2 weeks in at 2.5mg/day; so low dose. I do feel "activated" as they word it. A little more tremor, but I had tremor before depakote, the full depakote level stopped it, so this is kinda back to baseline. I see my doc again in a couple weeks, hopefully, bumping both up some will give me the stability of the depakote, and the paranoia breaking/anti-depressant effect of the abilify. We'll see what the doc says.
Hunger hasn't changed; my BP and fasting glucose seem unchanged as well.
