Still on Abilify? Have you gnawed your own arm off yet?

> Did you go back on? Love Phillipa

I saw my doc's nurse yesterday and I have stopped taking the Abilify. I have gained some weight in the 6 weeks or so that I took it.

I have gone back to Wellbutrin XL 150. And she suggested I take 5mg of Lexapro. I have taken 10mg in the past and was nausous, but very, very happy. I had to stop taking the Lexapro because it was cusing bladder retention and pain.

I actually haven't taken any meds today. I know I can take the Wellbutrin, but I have to take soemthing to even it out.

I am terrified of taking the Lexapro again because I am afraid of the bladder pain. She thinks if I start out on a tiny dose, even every other day, maybe it won't happen and I will still get the AD benefits from it.

I'm still contemplating going back to a small dose of Effexor with the Wellbutrin.

I just don't know yet. But I know I should take something.

We'll see.
