> Went to the doctor today and I told him I stopped taking the Abilify because it was making me bounce off the walls.
>
> He asked me how I felt after I took my dose at night. I said great - I fall right to sleep and sleep great - but within 10 hours of taking my dose of Abiify I get irritable, anxious and emotional.
>
> He said it sounded like it wasn't lasting long enough. He told me to take 5mg tonight instead of 2mg.
>
> He said if I was hospitalized they would start me out at at least 5mg and then 10mg.
>
> So, I will give it a try and see how it goes. I would love to have the relaxed feeling carry over to the day.
>
> We'll see.I say this over and over again to a lot of people, but please be careful when you stop taking these kinds of drugs suddenly, the withdrawals can be very bad and dangerous.
