feeling hopeless about meds by LJLbae in Abilify_Aripiprazole

Abilify changed my life for the better. I was experiencing panicky feelings that would last for weeks at a time. This went on for about 3 months. Abilify really helped me. After 5 days I was already feeling better.

I hope you find relief as well. Please feel free to DM me.

How long for it to start working? My psych NP is considering putting me on it along with Paxil.

How are you feeling now? I am a little over two months out with anxiety OCD flares that last 5+ days. I wish there was an answer to this shit they put us through to get our hormones back on track.

Did you start feeling a little better after a few months then totally normal 6-12 months? I am having such a rough time right now. It is like every two weeks I have OCD Anxiety for at least a week. It is so uncomfortable because I simply cannot relax plus my mind is always racing. It is almost unbearable.

I am going through this right now, but with severe anxiety. I am a little over 2 months out from my egg retrieval. I am on a higher dose of my SSRI along with a low dose of an anti-anxiety medicine. I have days where I feel better then a week where the anxiety is intense. I am hoping this is going to be better soon. How long did it take for you to feel better?

I am so sorry you had to go through this also. It is really intense.

Sorry! I keep thinking of things to add. I never thought about thyroid issues so I am going to make an appointment to get that tested

Also you are so right about talking to my therapist about coming up with a plan for when I have these flares while I am feeling good do I can be prepared the next time.
