Alcohol and AP's

What happens when you drink while on an AP? Does anyone have experience with this?

Yea I don't know...it changes with me, I think. I'm on Abilify. Sometimes it only takes a few drinks to get me plastered, at other times I can drink the better part of a wine bottle and not feel much. Maybe that has to do with when I last ate/my mood/my general condition and not the meds. I'm guessing the time passed between taking meds and drinking plays a role too. Best not to wash down the pills with a chaser...!

For me it really has an impact. Normally I can drink 250ml of vodka without much impact really but when i take my meds that day i'm drunk after one beer. but if i take my meds after the drinking (before going to bed) they dont have any impact.
