Good morning.....I'm feeling a lot of fear today. I'm going up on my Wellbutrin as well as adding Abilify, and I'm super anxious about what it's gonna do to me. I know a lot of you may have similar fears when changing meds.....trying to stay positive and hopeful. Thanks for being there !

Changing meds is one of the scariest things ever. I only recently had to change after 24 years of success with effexor and trazadone, so I have limited experience with this, but I will say: Keep in close communication with your doctors about how you are feeling, they are there to help. Mine gave me a small script for benzodiazepines. It helped with the worst of the side effects from the transition. You've got this! You are always stronger than you realize ❤️

Thank you so much for your support! So far so good.....a little nausea and fatigue. One day at a time...

I know the feeling. As long as you're in agreement with the changes then that's great. Take one day at a time and self care is important at this time, in case a few pesky side effects come about, but be patient as well. You'll do great. Hugs ❤️

Thank you so much for your support! I've been avoiding making the changes, but I haven't responded to anything else we've tried. I'm doing my best to stay positive!

Hello. I hate changing meds. It is a scary thing, but keep in close contact with your doctors about how you are feeling and take things one day at a time. I have changed meds many times and am in the midst of doing that again. You are strong and got this.
