I've been taking Abilify for several months now. I have not had any feelings to get up and move, but I have possibly had tremors, though that could be from my lithium. But the tremors started when I started the Abilify, and after I had already been taking lithium for 5+ years, so I am suspicious.

I am on 20mg, and it makes me slightly drowsy, but not bad. I just take it at night time and have no issues with further drowsiness. I think it makes me sweat a little more.

Overall my experience is positive, but it's not a heavy hitter like lithium. So I don't feel like it would prevent much. Mainly when I started it, it just kept me from getting overly frustrated and crying all the time, but didn't keep me from a light depression, so they had to add lamictal which has helped really well for that. So I'm not totally sure the Abilify is doing much.

Even at 20mg I have no big issues, no dizziness or eye problems. Nothing that would keep me from taking it. They did put me on 30mg for a little bit to try to combat the depression, and I felt a little *too* good. Felt too much like hypomania or maybe even mania, and my tremors were worse, so we backed off back to 20mg pretty quickly. I just felt amazing all the time. Not like I was doing anything weird, but I definitely felt elevated in a mood sense.
