ARIPIPRAZOLE vs FLUOXETINE

I was re-diagnosed with bipolar disorder (unspecified) again last week. I didn’t stick to meds the first time around, but decided to just believe and take it seriously this time. Been taking Aripiprazole 2mg for a week now, and while my body still feels sick like a common cold, I am doing some motio

There is no doubt that Abilify has made a dramatic impact on the lives of many schizophrenics here. However, there is a dark side to the drug that should be known, I am afraid. It can cause gambling behaviours. In Canada, the makers of the drug have stopped fighting the class action lawsuits. They j

I can’t go on another medication because the other meds make you gain weight and I am already overweight. I am on a combination of aripiprazole and sertraline for my bipolar and ocd. It is hell. I would rather be off my meds completely. I am crying as I type because I have lost all hope for myself.

I've been used for trials in the past. However, not to this extent. My family thinks this is too much for a single dose. My psych says it's fine to take this many meds. I've been on these for a month now. Should I keep going or change my doc? Any recommendation from anyone who's been through too ma

I am depression. The person I used to be is gone, there is no going back from this. I'm just sat In the hospital while my mum speaks to cahms, trying to hide my neck from all the other patients. I'm desperate to leave the hospital and get home but I know I'm gonna try again eventually. I've been on

Started seeing a therapist in April 2013 because my mum was worried about me. The therapist was in her mid 20's, and was pretty, so I felt a level of attraction to her, and told her a lot of things about me that I hadn't told anyone. I was in high school at the time, an all boys one, so she was basi

I feel like the anti-anxiety effects of this drug (Fluoxetine AKA Prozax), which have been good in a lot of ways, have caused me to lose a certain sense of 'urgency' or 'appropriate' anxiety towards things like academic deadlines etc. Things I really should be worrying about don't really make me anx

Hi! hope someone who is not feeling good read this. I tried to commit suicide two years ago. in fact, using another reddit account I found help with this community before, and people was really nice!.. So now I want to write this just to i dunno... maybe put some hope in at least someone. I've bee

A brief summary: so I had major depression & severe for anxiety for about 1.5yrs, it was serious & I was at an all time low, hospital admissions, the lot. Doctors suspected it was drug induced (from MDMA), which I completely agree with, it was the time I spiralled down HARD, and also situati

I am on 20mg of fluoxetine and it’s stopping me from crying almost completely, I can occasionally squeeze out a tear or two and I’ve had one been breakdown when I was drunk but other than that the feelings build in my body and I feel worse and worse but it has nowhere to go. I’m also breaking out in

7 months ago, I took fluoxetine for a total of 14 days, after a period of mild depression. Although far from being perfectly stable, I was still an energetic, passionate, intelligent young man with big aspirations and a lot to live for. Those 14 pills changed all of that. After about a week on the m
