> I haven't taken any Abilify today, but I'm considering it. I think the problems are that a) I was on an excessively high dose for too long, which made me dislike Abilify (which is the only AAP I can tolerate) and b) short-term, Abilify isn't that bad, especially at 15 (I have lots of 30 tabs, so I just take 1/2).
HOMEOSTASIS!
Try 10 mg/day of Abilify before you try pulsing it.You could even alternate between 10 mg and 15 mg every other day. The long half-life of Abilify allows for this without actually pulsing the drug.
You seem to be compulsive or impulsive in your constantly changing your treatment. I am concerned that you are getting stuck in a behavioral loop such that you will never allow any one regime time enough to establish itself.
As always, Best Wishes.
