Believe it or not I noticed an improvment with my difficult child after the first dosage. My child slept for about 12 hours and woke up happier. So far, I've been very pleased and my son has been on it for about a year.
My other child also trialed abilify and it didn't help...he actually got worse on it...after six months or so we realized that he was having increased anxiety and agitation as a side effect from the medications.
Glad you had a happy morning...sending good wishes it continues
