> In two large studies abilify monotherapy was not more effective than placebo for depression. Anecdotally people here seem to get a better response from it as an augmentor to an antidepressant. Some people do really bad with it and some people do really well with it. Like anything else. People seem to get different effects from different dosage sizes. Generally speaking, from reading posts here, it seems like low doses are more activating while higher doses are more calming. But sometimes it's the other way around. My doctor wrote me a script for abilify but I haven't filled it yet. He said he just started someone else out at 30mg. Yikes.
Yeah, i'm using it to augment Prozac.
