You may feel some more immediate effects with Abilify.

I am very sensitive to this class of medication. I'd noticed muscle stiffness and a change in my facial expressions. I was less animated and my muscles were stiff enough to make it difficult to walk up stairs, etc. This is called bradykinesia. Not everyone has this side-effect. I also had an immediate increase in appetite. I am still on it at a low dose (2 mg.). This is just my experience with it.

I hope this med works well for you without side-effects.

You are very wise to be vigilant imho.

Please let us know how it is going?
