I've had several months of my symptoms worsening (on and off moderate-severe anxiety, depression, and obsessive thoughts) and increased stress making it even worse. So FINALLY pdoc is changing up my antipsychotics (which I knew was probably the answer for a couple months now, but I guess pdoc was waiting to see if things calmed down).

He's replacing 1 mg Risperdal with 5 mg Abilify. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it works for me. Wish me luck!

Diagnoses: Bipolar 2, OCD, GAD
Current Meds: Lithium, Trileptal, Latuda, Abilify, Risperdal (tapering off), Xanax XR, Xanax PRN
