"i couldn&#039;t tolerate apiprazole (abilify) as a secondary mood stabilizer in addition to the lamotrigine, so i titrated up to 50mg. it helped. a lot. it stopped the ultradian mood cycling that occurred when they upped my lamotrigine up to 200mg, and it stopped the self-harming urge. it did, in combination with other things, cause kidney stones, but alone did not. it helped quite a bit in stabilizing moods, and i&#039;m just upping to 100mg/night. it did a lot for me, and i&#039;m glad my psych put me on it. i don&#039;t want to come off. no weight gain. even some weight loss. i wasn&#039;t expecting it, but i am certainly not sad about it. i&#039;d recommend it, but of course, everyone has different brain chemistry, as noted with my experience with abilify. &lt;== nope."
