"i have been taking abilify for a week. it has already taken the edge off the rages.  however, am still experiencing high anxiety.  my family says i am calmer so that is deinitely a plus.  i feel tired and wired at the same time - it is a weird feeling.  i am very paranoid.  i was paranoid before but this seems to have made it worse. but i am only on 2 mg&#039;s. at least the rages are better.  i am hopeful that this medication along with help from my doctor will be enough to get my life back."
