Summary
Mark Martinho tried low-dose Abilify after being ill for more than six years. He initially felt great with no side effects, but after about six months the drug, like most others he had tried, "ceased to work." He stopped for roughly a year and then restarted it a couple of times, but it never regained the impact it had the first time.
