"abilify has truly changed my life. before i started taking it i was crying every day for hours a day, i felt a sadness for what seemed like no reason, and it just would not go away. i started with 2.5mg and felt no change but at 5mg i felt a drastic improvement in my mood. i take it in addition to adderall xr for adhd. i was taking vistaril for my anxiety but that doesn&#039;t do anything but make you ridiculously tired, so i just got klonopin, going to give that a try. my only drawback to abilify is that for me it makes me very tired so i take it at night."
