hi. i think if its short term, that's different. the information ive read looked at -big groups- of people and found more problems than benefits, but i think those people were being treated with 2+ tranquilizers over the long haul. and of course... as the saying goes...'your mileage may vary.'
back when i was goin thru it, id take risperidone on top of abilify, now and then. id wake up with a stuffy nose, all sortsa groggy...and not so agitated. success!
