[QUOTE="Janna, post: 23493, member: 2737"] Tess, That's interesting that they told you the Lithium and Abilify shouldn't be used together. Typically, for BiPolar (BP)'ers, the mood stabilizer (in our case, Lithium) does alot of the work, however, they also need an antipsychotic in place (in our case, Abilify). Dylan started on the Lithium first. We got to a theraputic level in 8 weeks and then added the Abilify. For us, the mix has been a godsend, and sent him from a raging difficult child to an almost easy child. He's been on this mix almost a year, and it's been fantastic. No zombie. Actually, his teacher told me earlier this year she wished she had a classroom full of Dylan's. LOL! That's the first I ever heard that one! For anyone interested, or that didn't see the gm threads, Dylan LOVED the karate. We did our 2nd session today, and I signed him up. He will go Thursday and Saturday for now, until summer, then 2x a week, through the week (we camp on the weekends). She even gave him the yellow stripes for his belt today! LOL! She (the instructor) kept on saying over and over to him, you don't use this in school. This is only for self defense. Over and over. She was great. I'm really glad he likes this! Thanks again everyone, J [/QUOTE]
