Do you constantly feel like you have butterflies in your stomach
Never really had that side effect. The Abilify just numbs me to any real emotion. I don't feel as much as I think I should feel. Of course, BD people tend to feel too much anyway. So, maybe it's just a normal amount of feeling. That's the tricky thing with mental illness, you're trying to get to a state you've never experienced before.

Not trying to be an MD here but maybe get your goals down of simply doing what it takes to get better. Go back to simple basics. Eat better. Sleep better. Take walks or work out. And if you're willing, ask for a new med and chunk the rest. Try 10mg Lexapro for 2 months. Up to 20 thereafter. I've seen some amazing changes in a couple of female friends who just went with easy basic regimens. Retrained themselves basically.
