depression
"After 7  weeks on Lexapro & seeing no change at all in depression or anxiety, my primary care doc switched me to Abilify (only). I was on Abilify previously with Remeron and did well. I was told by doc on Friday 7/19 that I should start feeling better by Monday & he was right!  I feel almost like myself again.  Wake up a few times during the night, but am able to go right back to sleep.  Still have some anxiety in the mornings (it used to be debilitating and would have to take 1mg of Ativan to calm down).  This morning I only had to take 0.5 of the Ativan, so I think this is really working good.  I also just got a new small dog on Sunday, which I'm sure helps also with the depression/anxiety but the change is so great I had to share."
