I don't recall you mentioning trying desipramine. I was thinking it could be useful because it can improve concentration and mood, and does not generally cause any amotivation and fatigue.
Given your previous manic-type episodes, I think you would need to be cautious with TCAs.... but it could be worth adding a little bit of desipramine to see how you do, while continuing Abilify of course.
Do you have any medical conditions which could make desipramine unsuitable?
