Hello /adv/. Need serious help here, please.

I took 10 mg a day of Abilify for about two months under medical prescription. I had some bad side effects (including akathisia, nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, etc); when the prescription time ended I stopped taking it cold-turkey, without titration (don't know why pdoc ended it this way, but that's how it ended).

After I stopped Abilify, I became very depressed and without energy, something which I had never been before. Three weeks after stopping it I still get bouts of depression and peaks of anxiety. I'm afraid this drug has affected my memory. I have lost interest in things that used to interest me. The world seems flat, I feel extremely tired.

I am very concerned that the Abilify has caused permanent damage to my brain and I am going to be stuck this
way for the rest of my life. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Will this condition eventually go away?

hmmmn why do you think it caused permanent brain damage? it just a chemical bruh...
I took it too and me me super anxious like I couldnt stay calm and shit so my pdoc made me quit cold turkey too...
You see, there is no magical concoction for everyone, talk to your doctor to get some methylphenidate or something else that can give you a boost. It worked for me at least, it also undermined ADD in adulthood so yeah the chemical roller coaster I was in gave some good results.
MY ADVICE IS: if you are not having good results with your currend pdoc then swap him, it took me 3 tries to get to know someone more open minded and willing to take things more personal so DON´T YOU DARE QUIT MAN KEEP FIGHTING

OP here. I hadn't. One of them was about drugs I never took; other was someone more interested in my diagnosis than what I asked about.
