Depression
"I have suffered with depression since I was 12 years old. Knowing manic episodes would pass, I still kept thinking I absolutely couldn&#039;t live my life this way. I tried everything Prozac, Wellbutrin, Celexa, Lexapro and Seroquel. Finally after going back and forth with antidepressants. We decided to try Strattera with clonazepam instead of an antidepressant.  For 10 months I did fine. Until a few weeks ago when I had the longest and one of the worst manic episodes yet.  Bed bound and shower less every weekend. My doctor decided to try the Abilify 2.5mg. The first 2 days I was VERY irritable. I couldn&#039;t sleep at all, slowly those side effects are going away. I cannot describe how great I feel now, sleep still interrupted but much better."
