Hi,
thanks for your post! It's given me hope about this drug. I have just started taking Abilify 15 mg while tapering off Sulpiride 600mg. I am also on Lamictal 200mg and Tegretol Retard 800mg.How much Abilify did you start with and do you take now?
Did you have any insomnia and, if so, did it subside?
I have been taking it for a week and seem to only need four or five hours of sleep a night which is fine but a bit worrying for the long term (I take it in the morning).
I am taking it for Bipolar with psychotic symptoms.
thanks for any info,
Lyn
> Take Abilify in the morning since it's a stimulating yet calming drug. The restlessness and anxiety eventually goes away....it took several months for me. The secret is to keep the dose low, like you've been doing. I've been on Abilify for about a year and now the effect is almost like Librium. It's a fantastic drug.
