less Abilify, possibly Vraylar

Posted by Christ_empowered on August 13, 2019, at 19:33:48

saw the psych today. down 15 Abilify, from 20, because the 20 Prozac=higher blood levels Abilify, and I'm having some 'side effects.'

next time, she wants to try to switch over to Vraylar. im kinda scared, honestly. it can raise prolactin! it doesn't do the D2 stimulation thing as strongly as Abilify (this according my friendly psych). "good for agitation, those prone to mania."

mania?! ive been sleeping fairly well, my mood is brighter now, thanks to good ole Prozac...

ugh. --i don't get it--

my concern is that i'll get some intense akathisia, like i did from zyprexa and haldol. or dysphoria. i asked about dysphoria, and she's all 'oh, no...not a problem...it acts on other receptors to help depression...,' and im thinking...

dont i need some dopamine? why are they trying to steal my dopamine? what has my dopamine ever done to them?

but, yeah. thought id post.

what do y'all make of this?
