"it has been about a week and half since i started abilify. it has been 50 years of suffering clinical depression. i have been without depression ever since i started abilify. i am one happy camper! i have been so resistant to so many medicines. have been on lexapro, welbutrin and trazodone for years. the past year(s) i had this depression that was &quot;hovering&quot; over me preventing me to feel any enjoyment whatsoever. well, abilify has allowed me to feel life. i have energy and i even look forward doing things again. the only negative factor is that i enjoy my one cup of coffee a day. well, no more. if i drink a cup, i feel as if i drank tons of coffee. stay away from caffeine. and, i am not hungry!"
