I think its the Abilify. Also the high dose. When I was on Abilify it made me nervous, anxious, tired low energy, unable to sleep. Its a very high dose, I only made it up to 15mg, and that was where I felt the worse. I can't even imagine 30mg, although my doc was mentioning it, I refused. When I was on abilify, I felt psychotic and was very psychotic. I could not function at work and lost my job.
So, I think you should try losing the abilify. The longer you take it the longer it takes to recuperate. You don't feel beter at first and some times worse after you quit.
Maybe try the seroquel. I take zyprexa and perphenazine. I took abilify for 6 months at the longest trial. When I took it for a 2 week trial it took 6 weeks before I was feeling normal again.
I not saying what happened to me will or is happening to your boyfreind. But thats my experience. Some people say it works for them!
