Hi.
I was given a 1 month supply (7 15mg pills to be quartered) to help me with a mild depression as well as a non-existent libido. (The rationale is to curtail the depression then use topical testosterone...).
Anyway, I was very taken aback when I found that most ppl are using Abilify for schizophrenia, bipoloar disorder and anxiety. DOES ANYONE TAKE IT FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THESE CASES? JUST DEPRESSION - ANYONE??
Since drugs that affect serotonin levels are not a good idea given that I am recently married and have no interest in sex, my doctor wanted to try something "radical."
I also have poor body image any used to be bulimic, so reading the postings here I worry that I will gain weight. I read that some lose weight, but I have a very low BMI, so I will probably gain??
Well, I would really appreciate any help here. I am holding off taking the med until I feel more comfortable. I am not sure what is worse here, but I know that a marriage can't last if one person is hyper-sexual and one is averse...
