    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.
