I saw my doctor Yesterday and was prescribed Abilify 10 mg, while told to come off of Lamictal 50 mg. Lamictal caused me to have severe nausea, vomiting, suicidal idealization, sometimes severe anxiety, dissociate every single day, and to go completely numb. I couldn’t feel anxious, love, angry. I started to doubt my love for my husband. I seemed to feel irritated and guilty at times. It was miserable. But I am so so very glad to be going back on to Abilify. Weight gain seems like a big deal until you’re in the throes of mental anguish.

Anyway, I take my second pill tonight. But as of now I feel completely nothing? I usually feel severe anxiety when I start abilify almost immediately after taking it. But I’m not feeling anything. It’s worrying me that it won’t work. But I’m also telling myself things take time. Also, I just stopped taking Lamictal last night as well, and still no side effects but I was on a low dose of 50 mg. I figured coming off would feel horrible or something because I had such a hard time going on it?
