Hey, guys! I've been on 5 mg of brand-name Abilify for about 4 days now, and I'm not quite sure why, but I've been drop-dead tired lately. Like... I'm having such a hard time staying up. But it's also hard for me to sleep at night. It's weird... But anyway! There are a ton of things that could be making me tired. My doctor told me to go cold turkey off Lamictal, I've been sick with a cold, and I recently started on Klonopin, and that's a knockout drug for me! I don't feel well lately though. Last night, I was playing a game and my mind went crazy. The lights flashed and I almost felt like I was gonna have a seizure. I took a Klonopin because I figured maybe it was just a brain overload, and it actually made me LESS tired and less unable to focus. I'm not sure if it's the Abilify or...? Has it sedated anyone else at 5 mg, because I know usually the lower doses are more activating. Thanks!

I've taken 5 mg of Abilify and now take 10 mg with no side effects related to making me feel tired.

Abilify is very activating for me. I have to take it in the mornings or I can't sleep at night.

So do you guys think it could be withdrawal from the Lamictal that's making me go crazy? I was on it for about 4 months so.
