Scared to start Abilify

Posted by 4wd on October 6, 2005, at 22:20:59

Okay. So I saw my pdoc today. I told him I thought the Celexa didn't help anxiety, might be increasing it. I wanted to lower it to 5mg, also because of the neck pain and spasms which it causes. But he's afraid such a low dose will be ineffective for depression

So he suggested adding Abilify. Starting low at 2.5mg. I've read all the archives here re: abilify and don't know what to think.

At 10mg of Celexa I don't have much depression, mostly just a lot of anxiety especially in the mornings and until early evening. I sleep great. Will Abilify calm me? I understand it's a DA partial agonist but I don't understand what that means in practical terms.

Should I take it in the morning or at night?
