was on abilify for 1.5years. like others have mentioned - it can really perk you up, to the point of anxiety. i started abilify though because my energy was so low, so it really helped with that - i had no nasty side effects.
beyond the energy thing though it didnt do much for me, so i stopped taking it.
from memory, there is a thread on abilify in the med forum - it might be worth checking out
