Hi Just Jacquie-

I really am glad to hear the abilify is working for her!!

I tried my hardest three separate times to go on this med and after about a week one time, and next time two weeks, I just could not take it anymore, I was only getting three hours of sleep, it was the only antipsychotic drug I was trying out at the time. I wished so bad it would have worked for me because I am very unhappy about having to use seroquel all the time now.

Back in 2005, I replaced the Lithium with Lamictal, that seemed to take off some weight.

Now I am thin again on Lamictal and seroquel but that is because I have to eat fish, rice, and nuts and berries!!! SERIOUSLY. I take the seroquel at night, and force myself to just sleep so I don't wander around the kitchen as I can do sometimes.
