But that would mean tapering off my mood stabilizer, plus 2 antipsychotics, and 2 antidepressants. That's a lot of tapering and would be hard to do. Maybe I should just continue to deal with taking the pills Idk
Hmm. Hmm. Yeah. I know. But, that is quite a bit of tapering, Blue. To me, having stopped them all before in2012, I would think it quite unlikely you would pull that off without a recurrence. I went 11 months before my brain exploded. Huge recurrence.

I did great pn Abilifry for 12 years, but never, ever solo. No possible way for me. Maybe telll us what your doosage and schefule is every day. People can look and share what they see. I used to be tid on a couple. Now, i take 2 lithium qam, 2 Wellbutrin qam, 2 sarcosine qam, 1 asa qam, 1 fish oil qam, 1 adderall qam, 1 trilafon q am, and 1 trilafon qpm, 1 lithium pm. So, basically, almost all in the morning. PM is super fast during teeth. Super easy. Maybe look at yours and see what you guys could do. Possibly could move some around to eqse the burden. Hugs.
