My speech impediment has been pretty prevalent, lately. I'm sure it's the medication; but the meds are helping with my paranoia. So I'm just going to keep taking them. I don't want to lose any progress.

Meds can cause cognitive dulling which can make you slur your speech or sound "drugged."

Abilify caused those problems for me. I think it's cuz I have a tremor disorder that can affect my voice & Abilify made my tremors worse.
