girl_interrupted Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I titrated to 10mg of Abilify a week ago and ever since I have been feeling manic. My olanzapine was reduced from 25mg to 20mg. I don't see my Pdoc until June and am able to get in touch with my GP. Has anyone been though this? Abilify has given me back some life, I am not so sedated and want to do things and I am really enjoying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parapluie Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Abilify made me hypomanic at doses of 10 mg and under. Definitely tell your pdoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girl_interrupted Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Thanks for the replies. The mania had ceased but still energetic. Will see what GP can suggest and see if we need to call in Pdoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderful.Cheese Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Abilify has been activating for me but now I'm used to it. It is a good med for me. I like it a lot. I hope it works for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girl_interrupted Posted May 24, 2014 Author Share Posted May 24, 2014 Abilify is working! Thanks for the replies. Spoke to my GP and she said that it was a case of me not being used to being happy and she was so thrilled with the change. Olanzapine reduced to 15mg now feeling tired, this is so weird!
