Starting Qelbree

He is currently on Abilify and then was put on Ritalin with the Abilify which made him much more violent and agitated so I stopped giving it to him. Now the doctor is starting him on Qelbree. Has anyone had experience with this? I’m so frustrated with all this.

Abilify and weight gain

I am on an antidepressant for my depression, and then added Abilify last year which has helped with the extremes I feel in anger and frustration, and also the depths of despair. I like the effects of Ability as a mood stabilizer, but I started gaining unwanted weight.

Can anyone hear me? I feel like I’m talking to myself.

I am currently on Abilify 20mg and after it really starts working it does amazing. The side effects the first couple weeks are rough tho. I also attend DBT appointments via zoom. My therapist was the one that actually recommended me to join this site!

Psychosis from running out of abilify

I recently ran out of abilify for almost a week and had a horrible reaction. I couldn't get to the pharmacy to get my refill and was stuck without it.

Anger issues/ explosive outbursts

He currently takes Metadate CD, Focalin for afternoon and evening boosters, Prozac, Abilify. Recently he started intuniv….. We are struggling with his intense outburst of anger when he’s mad. Usually triggered by homework, not getting what he wants or he’ll just be in a “mood”.

Can't solve real bad anxiety issues. Meds out there?

I've heard people taking trazodone, abilify, or vistaril (though I'm not sure if it's strong enough for me). Am I out of options? Thanks for any help!

Get used to live with all these sickness in my life

I have to take medicines Abilify & Imrest every day and night time so as to control my mental illness and put me asleep. I believe all these sickness are linked together. I used to think tinnitus is just for elder people but no I’m now just like 30 years old something.

Anyone have experience with Wellbutrin

Im now back on abilify but I don't think it's helping. My moods are out of control and I can't feel emotions on a steady level. If I'm happy, I'm way too up and crash when the excitement ends, when I'm sad I feel so strong and cry for no reason.

Abilify

still can't take anxiety med. They say ability should be kicking in any day, only on 3 day taking it. But a little better today. Hanging in on the Lord.. how everyone doing?

How Are You Guys Today? :)

I've been on these as follows: • Zoloft • Prozac • Cymbalta • Abilify • Lamotrigine • Hydroxcizine • Buspirone • Trazadone & quite a few others. A lot of these did help me but some didn't work. I want to try to ask for something way stronger for my anxiety because it's getting bad again.

Dosage of Fluoxetine too low or are other meds needed?

Added ABilify, thought helped a bit, then added mirtazapine but didn't take long enough before I had a surgery with complications this year so they stopped all meds in hosp so decided I wanted to try something new. Over a month suffered cuz Psych wouldn't fit me in.

Anyone else having to go off their meds for pregnancy?

I've been on Zoloft 100mg and Abilify 5mg for two years, which has worked WONDERS! Since I started IVF, my doctor took me completely off the Abilify and has me taking 50mg of Zoloft every other day. It's been roughly 3 weeks and man, am I feeling shitty!

Experience with Abilify?

The newest medication prescribed is Abilify. I am reading the side effects, and WHEW....I am terrified. Obviously, his medical/support team believe the potential benefit outweighs the risk, but still...I'm concerned. And we don't make these decisions lightly.
