> From a prior post you mentioned you were using Abilify as anti-depressant,correct, not as an anti-psychotic, or at least to keep you from the "abyss". If that is correct, what is life like for you without Abilify?
Hi P.
I skipped taking Abilify for a few days last week to see if I could do without. I experienced a small worsening of depression and the appearance of anxiety. It was enough of a worsening that I decided to go back on it. Lamictal + TCA + Abilify give me about a 15% improvement over my unmedicated baseline. I would want to give you more detail as to just what that baseline is like to live with, but I would find it a bit too upsetting to write about right now. When I'm up to it, I'll try to fill you in.
