Dear HHS
First guess would be the Cymbalta is not necessary -- or could be lowered.
And I suppose that the Abilify is contributing to the paranoia.
But I don't have experience with these meds.

I hope the shrink's adjustments work.

When I was on Abilify I only slept for 4 hours a night which if this is happening to your friend, the lack of sleep would not help.
