1st Abilify Update - Feeling Okay

17th May, 2026: I reduced my abilify dose from 15 mg to 10 mg due to chronic weakness. At the time, I was also taking 10 mg of procyclidine, which turned out to be too high a dose once the abilify was lowered. Two weeks after the abilify reduction, I experienced withdrawal symptoms, including confusion, blurred vision, tachycardia, stress, and feeling like I can't breathe properly. Moving forward, I plan to lower my procyclidine dose (by 1/4 of a 5 mg tablet) as soon as these symptoms begin, despite the fact that reducing procyclidine causes severe weakness. Procyclidine significantly slows the gut, but I have to take it due to EPS. Maybe I'm not a good metabolizer of abilify, which is why I am still experiencing EPS. One positive thing is my weird head sensations are better after lowering the dose to 10mg, even though the dr said it was part of the illness.
