My pdoc lowered my dose from 2mg to 1mg. For the 1st few days, I felt ok, but now, a week later, I am having horrible depression, and I am exhausted.

I don't know if it is because I need the higher dose of Rexulti, or its a withdrawl thing because I am taking a lower dose now.

Any idea??

If I had to guess, I'd say if you were feeling better on 2mg., you might want to seek permission to go back to that dose. However, I am not a health professional. Please seek guidance from your prescribing physician.

I hope you are feeling better soon!

i take abilify. when my dosage was reduced, it wasn't great at first, but i adjusted rather quickly. maybe just try to give it some time? Clearly, I'm not an expert, so you should probably talk to whoever is prescribing your psych drugs.
