So I’ve been using abilify for a long time now but it’s been causing me to gain weight. I have tried Geodon and some other medications but they don’t seem to work. Are there any other antipsychotic medications that have worked for you guys without side affects?

      Oh gosh...abilify... That was a living nightmare for me. I was like a walking zombie and I wouldn't be alive today if I was still on it. But ever since they put me on Lexapro, I have been so much better.

      I'm on escitalopram now as well, works better for me. Also I'm pretty sure abilify gave me tardive dyskinesia and now sometimes my face gets twitchy.

      Ability did that to me too! I've had luck with eacitalopram (Lexapro)
