Unexplained bruising on aripiprazole, new medication

Hi, I just started a new medication, aripiprazole, 2 weeks ago and I seem to have developed 12 new unexplained bruises in the last couple of days.
Has anyone else experienced bruising from medication? If so, is it dangerous or is it something that can happen but isn't a problem and will just go away with time?
I can't contact my mental health team about it as I'm between services at the moment, I've just been discharged from home treatment team and waiting to be seen by community mental health, so not sure what to do. I guess I could contact my GP Monday or maybe 111 if its important, but don't want to call and waste their time if its not serious.
Thank you

I would call 111 just in case it is serious.
I take 30 Mg Aripiprazole but have not had this side effect.
