ambilify

[janjam]

I have just been given a prescription for Ambilify today.  The reason is because my other antidepressants haven't been working it this is for augmentation.  Does anyone have any info or experience with this med?

It was added to my Pristiq (antidepressant) when I used to take Pristiq.
I took abilify with that antidepressant for about 4 months.

For me it never did help, even when I raised the dosage. They say the stuff is supposed to make your antidepressant work better, but it never made mine work better.
I guess some people say it works for them so don't go only by my experience.

The only add on drug I have found that really supercharges my antidepressant is Lithobid CR.

hello, i was put on abilify after falling into a severe depression when my father passed away. within a few days i could feel the depression lift and did ok for a few months. then i crashed into another depression for no real reason. increasing the dose did'nt help.i was taken off and put on wellbutrion and seroquel and decreased the lexapro to 10mgs. i'm feeling somewhat better. but i don't like the seroquel. and really don't know why i was put on it.
