> I cycled on and off abilify because it caused weight gain for me. But I never had any withdrawal effects.I was on abilify for a few weeks. I was taking it every other day or something like that. I didn't have any trouble tapering off - no side effects from withdrawal. I guess if you are planning to stop taking your meds there is the urge to want to taper everything at once - may be too much of a shock on your body. In my opinion, pick the one that gives you the most anxiety or problems and start with that one first. Hopefully your doc can give you some tips on the best way to taper.
