Abilify making my depression worse! .. for real??

Posted by Alexei on May 9, 2012, at 7:54:11

Hello, my pdoc has placed me on abilify 2.5mg to augment effexor ... which alone is not helping enough.
Instead, abilify seems to be making me more depressed and sad, and canceling out my vyvanse! It feels like it flattens and blunts my emotions and I do not perceive things as clearly as before. It puts my mind into a haze.
I feel a lift in mood sometimes, but it comes and goes. Has anyone had this happen? Any thoughts & suggestions would be great. Is it actually helping anyone?
I thought this med was supposed to kill depression in its tracks.
