That's good to hear, I'm glad it's working for you! I might have to ask my pdoc to try Abilify. I tried it on a low dose last year and it made me manic but I hear low-dose Abilify can do that since it acts like an antidepressant. Maybe at like 10mg it would work. Plus I just got my blood test back, my cholesterol and triglycerides are all outta whack so idk how much longer I can stay on the Zyprexa
