The psych nurse practitioner wants to start me with Abilify 2mg. I’m scared of the side effects and from what I‘ve read would be more comfortable trying lamictal or low dose lithium. Now I don’t want to take it and maybe just wait to see if I get another manic episode? Just BLAH. I’m afraid of blowing my life up again but I’ve been relatively stable the last year, slightly depressed swinging to slight hypomania I think. I could also try to go to another doctor and see if they put me on a less scary med. If anyone has any words of wisdom I’d appreciate it.
