I have been taking Abilify for in the order of 6 weeks. It has helped me beside my racing thoughts, anger issues, and overall has help me with some mild depression. It has help me function on the job, with peers, significantly. Several hold commented to me that I am much more relaxed than I have been contained by months. I honestly didn't know I was having the problems I clearly be with mood and behavior. Insomnia and tiredness seem to be my worst symptoms of the Abilify. I switched to taking it contained by the AM and this has helped near sleep, but it still is not good, maybe averaging 5 hours per darkness. The restlessness and need to walk almost adjectives the time is worse in the evening for me, and unfortunately I work evenings, but still the benefits greatly outweigh the negative. I look forward to hearing from some of you with Bipolar 1 Disorder, who are also prescribed Lithium as I am, beside your experiences coping with side effects of Abilify.
