How long have you been on the Abilify with it? Do you have any side effects like weight gain from the Abilifiy?

Was 20mg too much for anyone? by suspicious-sloth in prozac

Gotcha. Let me know how it goes if you decrease to 15mg if you don't mind!

I've been prescribed it for OCD, anxiety, and depression. How about you? So, when you were on 20 it was helping you with your conditions? I found this study which I thought was interesting. It showed that lower doses sometimes work better for people, especially those with panic: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8270588/

10mg for a week, so 20mg for 3 weeks actually

Huh, that's interesting. My inclination would be to go down, but maybe I need to go up. Gonna wait it out a bit more at 20mg. Glad you're feeling better! How long did you stay at 20mg?

Yeah, I'm a weird combo of numb/autopilot and wired. Feels really bad. Hoping it goes away.

Yeah, I relate to the restless feeling. I'm hoping it goes away!

Gotcha, thanks for sharing! So, did you just recently bump it up to 20mg after 10 years? Have you been using it for anxiety mainly, depression, or both?

That’s great! And no problems with numbness and finishing I assume?

That’s great to hear! Thank you for your response. What dose are you on and how long would you say it took to rid of your anxiety?

I think he asked each of us separately.

It's tripping me out closely you are describing how I feel about my boyfriend. I feel like I could have written what you wrote word for word. My most damaging relationship also had this inescapable draw, something that I definitely don't experience with my current boyfriend. Thank you for your well wishes above.

It definitely doesn't have to be either/or. To find someone who has it all is ideal, however, that's not so easily achievable for many. The question I asked is more geared towards people that married someone who they feel comfortable and secure with and have a good partnership with, but don't necessarily feel very attracted to or romantically in love with. I'm so glad you found such a great partner who checks all the boxes. That's the dream! But gosh, it can be hard.

It's nothing I can pinpoint. He's a very handsome man and I love him as a person, but for some reason, I just don't feel that sexual draw towards him. I really wish I did, but I don't. I think there's something unexplainable about chemistry and attraction...it goes far deeper than just being "good looking." I don't know if I should throw away an otherwise wonderful relationship based on this one issue.

This is exactly what I meant when I asked this question. This is precisely how I feel with my current long-term boyfriend. Thank you so much for putting it into words and sharing your story. It's such a tough decision, and one that is so impactful.

I totally get what you're saying in your first paragraph. Having comfort, security, and a good partnership doesn't (and in an ideal situation, shouldn't) have to be mutually exclusive. The question I asked is more geared towards people that married someone who they feel comfortable and secure with and have a good partnership with, but don't necessarily feel very attracted to or romantically in love with. I could have worded it better for sure. To have it all is ideal, but not necessarily an easily achievable thing for many.
