major depressive disorde
"Have been on Abilify for 9 days.  It started working in 1-2 days, however don't feel discouraged if you are not seeing immediate results - they say it can take time.  I started taking 2.5mg to augment my Effexor 375mg.  Abilify lifted me out of depression and gave me energy and motivation to do things again. It took away all my anxiety symptoms and made my worries seem foolish.  I'd been worrying intensely for a long time so it was a great relief.  It did initially make me a little sleepy.  And I think I've gained 1 kg (2.5lbs) so I'll have to watch it in that respect.  So far I am entirely grateful for this drug.  I spent so much time here reading the reviews before starting it, I was determined to come back and leave my own."
