Re: Abilify as a casual adjunct??

I laughed when I saw the new ad on TV pushing people to casually add Abilify to their AD mix and thought "how irresponsible I would never do that."

I added risperdal to my serzone years ago and flipped the "eff" out!

Well my doctor suggested it today because the Buspar I have been augmenting my celexa with (for anxiety and concentration) is making me consistently dark, brooding, and cynical, bordering on suicidal at times.

I only want to take it if it will help with anxiety and concentration without blunting me and my sex drive. Otherwise I would just ramp up to full dose Celexa again.

What are the opinions about a very low dose of abilify to augment a 20 mg dose of Celexa? Is it harmless or will I get fat, blunted, diabetes, and die of a stroke?

I am also taking 100 mgs Lamicatal bid and (for now) 25mgs of buspar (split into two doses)

Thanks for any input!
