I was on Abilify as an adjunct to my antidepressants, Lexapro and Wellbutrin. I'd also been on Trileptal as it stopped my nonstop crying, and was going to transition to Lamictal from that.

The Lamictal reacted with me terribly. Tried to boost the Abilify. Even worse. My shakiness is subsiding somewhat. MEdical marijuana helps.

Major depressive episode, very high anxiety (treated with Klonopin), panic attacks, easily triggered.
