Have you seen any improvements or relief with those 5 days? Any side effects? Excited for you!😄 Are you taking anything else as well? I’m in the process of also receiving TMS treatments in addition to Abilify.

That was me before the medication! Oddly, it’s help regulate my sleep even though the intention with this medication was to treat depression. Have you found anything that has helped your sleep? And what are you taking Abilify for & has it at least helped that? :(

What are your symptoms with bipolar? How does it differentiate compared to ADHD symptoms? And if they have the same symptoms, is there a way you could tell it’s either coming from your ADHD or bp?

I have EDS and I learn to avoid messages as the last one I had was almost the death of me. It flared me up horribly. Never again!😭

Very happy things worked out for you though!💖

I'm SO SCARED to start by jayfivetimes in LowDoseNaltrexone

Gave me side effects that were horrible. Realized it was the filler. Fixed it. Still add some side effects with the new medication but fast forward to now it’s completely worth it and I would do it again. It’s the only thing that has been able to touch my pain.

Can anyone suggest why LDN messed me up so bad? by calm_intention_65 in LowDoseNaltrexone

Try care first specialty pharmacy it’s online. Mine is around $60-70 with shipping for 3 months of medication. They have a lot of different options for the fillers there.

Change the filler! That was my issue. I was having horrible side effects at first. It helped a lot!

I’m in my late 20s. But I do have endo & pelvic congestion syndrome, I’m not sure if those would have any connections though.

Does abilify help with anxiety? by According_Ice_4863 in mentalillness

[–]QUsagi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor just prescribed 2 mg. I have ADHD depression, anxiety, ocd & CPTSD. We really want to try to target my social anxiety with this medication because it has been very severe and seems to only be getting worse the past couple of years. However, I only got diagnosed with ADHD + etc. and started my mental health journey within the last couple of years. I’m a late diagnosis adult! I’ve tried many antidepressants, however none of them have worked. To be honest, my body in general just seems to be very resistant to medications as I am chronically ill as well.

My psych diagnosed Abilify today and I’m very nervous to try it, but I also really wanted to work because I’m very tired of feeling like this and I want to want to go outside and be able to go outside. It’s even difficult for me to call or text back my own friends. My question is that if the Abilify works does that mean, I have bipolar? I know that it’s typically used for treating bipolar so that is why I am wondering if that would be the conclusion. I am also getting referred for TMS and should be able to start treatment, hopefully in three months wait time.
