"abilify has enabled me to control some of my anxiousness and reactions due to being anxious better than i had been able to before.  i no longer want to smack someone who i feel is doing me wrong - i am able to control those impulses so much better than before, it is not even funny.  i think on a day to day basis, i am much more even keeled than i was before i started taking the medication.  keep in mind that i take it with an antidepressant (lexapro) because i understand that abilify provides an assist to the lexapro in controlling my overwhelming depression symptoms.  depression and anger are now being controlled more effectively."
