Hi, I'm Ann Julia

I am getting my taper off Abilify, presently 12 mg. It was the causation medication that gave me tardive dyskinesia in April 2026. I was on it for 20 years. Looking for compassionate like-minded persons tapering slowly. Hoping to learn how to use liquid formulation during the end of the taper from the Community.
Abilify — 12 mg — 20 years — actively tapering | Gabapentin — 900 mg — 8 years — supporting others | Wellbutrin — 450 mg — 20 years — supporting others | Klonopin — 3 mg — 20 years — supporting others | Lamictal — 200 mg — 15 years — supporting others

Hi @Ann Julia, welcome!
We have plenty of people tapering @Abilify here. I'm sorry to hear about your TD. How is your taper going so far? Are you tapering Hyperbolically? If you go to the Tapering Protocols section of the forum on the Home Page and click the Guides tab, you'll find a list of helpful articles.
