I know you're on a very low dose already, but Abilify is certainly a potent drug - as demonstrated by the powerful effects you've experience already. Perhaps you could reduce the dose for a few weeks and see how you do, you could try 1-2mg/day, or 2.5mg on alternate mornings. Alternatively, you could ask your doc about adding a very low-dose muscle relaxant benzo for the next 2 weeks or so eg. diazepam 2mg three times a day, lorazepam 0.5mg twice a day, or clonazepam 0.25mg twice a day.
