Absolutely not! You cannot imagine how awful you could end up feeling, not needing the medication. In case you need more dissuading, here is a list of potential side effects you run the risk of experiencing instead of a benefit there's no reason to expect. If you do not want to change your current brain function and chemistry, I would strongly urge you NOT to take Abilify, which is intended to do precisely that. Remember that it works on Dopamine, Serotonin and Histamine receptors and is not a harmless or impotent medication. I would never take it if I didn't need to... Headaches -- in up to 30 percent of people Anxiety -- up to 20 percent Insomnia -- up to 19 percent (see Abilify and Insomnia) Nausea -- up to 16 percent Constipation -- up to 13 percent Vomiting -- up to 12 percent Dizziness -- up to 11 percent.   Some other common side effects with Abilify (occurring in 2 percent to 10 percent of people) included:   Indigestion or heartburn Drowsiness Shakiness (tremors) Weight gain (see Abilify and Weight Gain) Restlessness Fatigue Dry mouth (see Abilify and Dry Mouth) Joint pain Throat pain Blurred vision Abdominal pain (or stomach pain) Pain Cough Nasal congestion Increased salivation Swelling or water retention in the arms, legs, or feet And the list goes on for two more pages!
