I have taken all of those but the best one, for me, is the zyprexa. It helps me a lot with my hallucinations and paranoia. But this time of year is always tough, so I am looking to add something new next week. I don't want to get rid of the zyprexa but I want to add something.

What dose of abilify? I was really psychically ill when I came off it but I was on the highest dose possible at the time and I decided stop it cold turky.

Wondered if buying the meds of the net would be cheaper in the long run? Know a few people on DS who do that.

Asked one of my pdocs once how they come up with the names for the meds. Said they like to come up with names that roll of the tongue or something to that effect. Wonder often how you go about getting a job making up the names for the meds. As sounds like a cushy job!

Thanks for the feedback. I see my pDoc tomorrow so then I will know what he thinks. I take 20 mg of Abilify, which I think is pretty high. There have been times when I forgot to take it and the withdrawal was brutal. I don't see how one could go off it cold turkey...I only did that with cigarettes and gained 30 pounds in the process.

there are more under the search for "prescription assistance"

The above are just a couple. Might try calling them and seeing them if you want to stay on Abilify.
