You’re thinking of working and going back to school…would you be stable enough without the Abilify?

I'm not sure, I haven't had a period without APs in 4 years. I went maybe a year without them and did well but eventually ended up needing to go back on them
I decided to keep taking them for now. I mean I missed my night meds for one night (last night) and I've been up for 28 hours so that probably means I need to be on all my meds and take them consistently. I definitely want to work and go back to school. I know the last time I was in college I was on an AP, Invega sustenna and I was doing really well, going to all my classes in person, getting out, doing things, talking to people, despite the fact that I had gained some weight on it.
