  1. Hi - Been on Abilify 10mg and Artane 2mg for 3 plus years now. My taper of Abilify 10mg started in February this year and took 9,8,7 and 6mg within 6 weeks. Then Took 5mg and 4mg for a month each and took 3mg for 2 weeks before stopping Artane 2mg due to eye related issues. Thats when I got some leg tremors, panicked and switched to Abilify 2mg, which was a mistake. This caused wd symptoms like dry eyes, dry mouth, insomnia, heart palpitations, tremors and anxiety which are slowly subsiding. Now I am on Abilify 2mg for close to 2 months now and waiting to get oral medication to taper at 10% of last dose every month. My question is with the oral meds, one drop equals .05ml. So how do you measure such small amounts as we progress further? Also is a detoxing diet taken occasionally a good idea?
  2. Last year November, I was diagnosed with depression and given benzhexol along with risperidone. By December, I began feeling dependent on Benzhexol and could rarely do stuff without it especially reading, talking to folks around me,etc. I always felt too anxious without it,also I wouldn't sleep properly, then gradually my body begins to feel horrible, headaches along with a terrible body feelings, confusion. I knew there was a problem and complained about it to my Doctor. He dismissed it as I was becoming anxious, it's a mild side effect, etc basically I would be fine and he increased my dosage to take a tablet twice daily, then I felt better but only during the drugs. By January the drug wasn't making me feel better, I then began complaining further but this time I also tried stopping, I would stop for a few days, usually lying down thinking my discomforts would go away, it doesn't then I would use a pill, I could reduce my use to a pill, then half, I spoke to my doctor further, so now I'm taking half a pill daily, but it feels like hell and I often wish I never should have started using pill as I only feel worse.
