I can hardly eat without getting sick to my stomach not acctually throwing up though.... is that the side effects of that med?

If you just got on Abilify, nausea is not uncommon, dizziness and clumbsiness too. For me it went away after a few days. Actually, Abilify was one of the better meds I have tried. Yes, there were side effects but still it got me out of a nasty depression. It's very individual; what works great for one person doesn't work for another. You need a lot of patience when you are playing around with these meds... But I'm happy I stuck with trying meds until I finally found some that fit me, it makes such a huge difference. If you're unsure of whether to take them or not, talk to your doctor and listen to your heart, both things are needed.

meds cause so many side effects specially when you just start to take them... side effects are why i am not on any meds today... i found that some of the meds i was on did make me feel kind of high, or just not myself... i was told if i just continued on them those side effects would go away... i was not willing to go through those feelings and wait for the side effects to just go away, i woul try for a while but would just stop because it felt like i had waited long enough already... i have found a lot of meds to ruin my appetite, some meds that i have gone on have caused me to drop a lot of weight, and for me that is not a good thing as i am already too skinny... i found that either food would make my stomache upset or i just didnt have the urge to eat.. i started to foce myself to eat because of the weight loss which only made me sick... tell you doctor of the symptoms you have, and he may try to help in some way.. .but i have found that doctors want people to take more and more pills... to help with this we will give u this and to help with that we will give u something else, until eventually u feel like u are overwhelmed with all the pills they are pushing at you. Try to stick it out and they may go away soon, but they may not. I wont take anything now, so i am labelled as not wanting to get better, but i would rather just learn to cope on my own without drugs being pushed on me. Some people swear by their meds, but they work differently for everyone.

Yes, I happened to lose too much weight on this medication cuz I was never hungery.  I was constantly moving, and anxious as hell.  I had to get off this medication ASAP, I switched to something else at the time and now I don't take any Medications.  But, this one in particular did the most harm to me.
