Emily,I'm glad that Abilify has worked so well for you. My pdoc has mentioned that it has worked very well for some. He has also said that about Zyprexa too. It has shown some great promise at times for me, but alas proves too hard to tolerate in the end. It creates anxiety and restlessness eventually.
May I ask how much you take and if it is part of a combination, such as an add-on to an antidepressant?
