Q: When you stop taking Abilify, what are the side effects that you can get?
This is probably a little late, but just noticed your question. My son is on Abilify and tried to get off of it, but after just a few days, he started feeling very irritable and angry and decided he needed to go back on it. I don't know if it's something you need to withdraw from gradually or not, his doctor has not been very good and we're in the process of trying to find a new one who acts like he cares.
Hope that helped a little.
I was taken off Abilify a week ago and I am doing horrible. My depression is back really bad. I was just put on Prestiq a few days ago and I hope it works fast and just as well as Abilify did.
