coolgirl Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 So, the reason I am posting is because I need suggestions. I've been always used to numbing my feelings for a long time. I was taking abilfy to help me with that and not feel anything and in my mother eye's while I was on it she said it makes you more sad and more depressed even more. So I stopped taking them just to make her happy. I honestly did not feel any different while I was on them. So to make her happy I did it anyways. I stopped taking Abilify back in 2015. When I started talking to someone in August of 2015 I was not on them still.And I felt every emotion there was which i didn't want too and became a huge problem for me. When I start feeling my emotions I loose control and panic. Now, please don't tell me what ever issues your having try to fix them. I rather be emotionless rather than to feel anything. So my question is are there any other type of medication out there that can help you feel numbness ? And if so what type of doctor I would need to see for that ? Because I need to get this done ASAP because it's really bothering me. Thanks ! Link to comment
Jibralta Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Maybe zyban (wellbutrin)? I took it about 15 years ago to help me stop smoking (didn't work and I quit on my own, fyi), but its original purpose was to treat depression. When I was taking it, everybody kept asking me what was wrong. I guess I just had this glazed over expression on my face! I felt fine, though. Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Abilify is an atypical antipsychotic. It is recommended and primarily used in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Your mother should not be dictating or recommending going off serious medication like this indiscriminately. The manic panic can set in again. At first the resurgence of mania may feel good and "alive" again but then the tense, irritable and out of control feelings come back.I was taking abilfy to help me . I stopped taking them just to make her happy. I felt every emotion there was which i didn't want too and became a huge problem for me. When I start feeling my emotions I loose control and panic.
