HI all-
Sorry for my absence from Psycho Babble. My dad was admitted to the hospital 2 weeks ago to the ICU. He has 3 different strains of pneumonia, ,sepsis and is going through detox after drinking for 50 years. It's been really hard on all of use. He's still in the hospital and is having memory troubles, etc. The list goes on and on. He's 70 years old.
I'm having severe financial problems and so if my family. It' s been really tough for all of us.
As for me. I've gone up from 2.5 Abilify to 5mg.It seems to be working really well despite the real life circumstances. I have periods of restlessness but nothing like the Geodon.
I'm also having to move to a new apartment because my current leas is up. I have to be out by this coming Sunday and I have no one to help me pack. I'm hoping I can find movers to help me as I have asthma and live on the 3rd floor.
I't been a stressful time and I could use as much support as I can get.
Thank you all for being here - I love you all
Jerry

Im really pleased that the Abilify is working for you. It was the one that changed my life, but not everyone can tolerate it. Glad you tried it. The restlessness goes away after a while.
Glad to hear youre doing a little better. Sorry about your other situations.

Jerry,
I'm sorry to hear about your dad, alcoholism is an awful illness.
I'm really pleased to see a more hopeful post from you though, I'm glad the abilify is helping you. Scott (SLS) is on that too istn't he.
Good luck with the house move.
Denise
