I was started on abilify (30mg) about a
month ago and have experienced extreme
feeling of weakness. I have gone down to
a very low dose (2 1/2 to 5 mg) bacause of
this, but think that a bigger dose is
necessary and would like to build up to
about 10-15mg. Is the weakness I feel
something i'll have to put up with long
term or does it go?

When you first start a medication such as
this, it happens. It happened to me with
risperdal, but eventually your body gets
usedto it and the side effect wears off.

Firefly is right but if you feel
uncomfortable with it, talk to your Dr.,
to me that is your best bet!
All the best!
