In reading your most recent post, I guess I'd revise my earlier advice to back off the drugs, at least partly, since the Abilify seems to be working. Still, once you get stable you might want to look into some of the things I mentioned above. I feel compelled to say, though, that I'm not sure of the wisdom of giving an anti-psychotic like Abilify, which has so many possible adverse side effects, to a 19 year old who is not psychotic. (And I say this as someone who has vociferously defended the use of psych drugs on this forum from time to time.) I'm an old guy & I sincerely hope this does not sound condescending, Dima. I just think you should take a wider view of your issues and complaints.
