I started Abilify/ Hope is gone!

Posted by Eggy on November 4, 2003, at 13:03:19

I started Abilify 9 days ago 10 mg. Every single muscle I have cramps so bad I feel like they have each shorten 10 inches since I have started it, my vision is so blurry I cannot drive. My Pdoc said discontinue it. This is the first day without it.

We discussed for a couple months putting me on it. I had tried so many other medicine combos but nothing seemed to work. The Lamictal helped a lot but I am still so depressed I don't think I can handle much more. My Pdoc said he was sure this drug would help me feel better. But the side effects were horrible.

How long will these side effects last? What other meds might I try?

My DX is BiPolar, Borderline, PTSD and Dissociation.

I have been experiencing a lot a paranoia.

I have already been thru detox way too many times so I don't want to "self medicate"...well I do but I am trying to be good. I want to feel better the safe way. Thank you for lending an ear.
