Aripiprazole gave me awful anxiety attacks, back when I was on it in February I went out for a meal with my grandparents and I just couldn't handle it. It felt like everyone in the room was staring and burrowing into my mind. In the end I had to leave and hide in the car because it was making me feel so agitated.
I have spoke to a couple of people at my EIP group and they have told me aripiprazole caused anxiety in them as well. I suspect it may be due to the fact that the drug can be quite over stimulating in some people.
