In reply to Chemist, MAO or Panda: Abilfy for Sleep a Mistake?, posted by PoohBear on September 18, 2004, at 18:49:49
From what I know, Abilify is stimulating and can cause extreme akathasia/agitation/irritability and insomnia.
One research psychopharmocologist I used to see said that Abilify would be good for me if I needed something stimlating - but that he would never use it for sleep because it's like taking a stimulant at bedtime.
Seroquel worked for me - but weight gain was a problem. Have you tried Tegretol or Neurontin?
