  Oh she had to go on a bunch. It was like the Max daily doses of both Prozac and Buspar to get it down to only occupying like 4-6 hours of her day, then they added a tiny dose of Abilify and all that’s what finally got it to shut up in all but the worst days.

    Interesting. They gave me Buspar and it drugged me hard and somehow made me hostile, lol. But Abilify sounds interesting, I had no idea it was used for anxiety. What are the side effects she’s seen or you’ve noticed?

      I think the only thing she really complained to me about was it boosting her appetite? Hard to remember off the top of my head, I’ll have to ask her when she wakes up. But she’s also on a tiny dose of the Abilify. Like she started on the first dose on the schedule to titrate up and that tiny amount was enough.

        Thanks, I would really appreciate knowing her thoughts on it as someone else with OCD. As long as I can still function with Abilify, Buspar made me so tired that I started napping for three hours a day, on top of my regular sleep schedule. I’m not even a napper, lol.

    Gosh that sounds like a bull-ride! Huge relationship tax, too…

    Well done riding through it

      Not as much as it sounds honestly, to her massive credit. She’s done a lot of work managing it and I work with her trying to keep it manageable. But that’s what partnership is right? She helps me where I struggle, I help her where she struggles.
