i think there's a point of diminishing returns, and there's also a point at which one can actually lose more than you're gaining from psych drugs that are dosed too high.

im down to 20mgs/abilify. more than a lot of people, but less than the 30mgs i was on for a long time. i like this dosage much more, and i function better.

low to moderate dose perphenazine was compared to zyprexa in the catie study, with people labeled "Schizophrenic." The perphenazine was almost as effective as the zyprexa, w/ fewer metabolic problems and I think less sedation, too. its a moderate potency older tranquilizer, phenothiazine.

loxapine works for some people, too. maybe ask about an increase in the modafanil, if that's an option? might be an easier quick fix.
