I have to agree with you Jonathon...weight gain is a side effect fr those of us who have taken antips.
Lithium and risperdal were shockers I put on 25 kg...but Risperdal brought me out of psychosis...it was amazing.
Seroquel really agrees with me so I am hoping to be able to stay on that....I have been able to lose 10 kgs over a lengthy period but the scales are going down.
Saying that what ever is required to bring you out if psychosis is worth it.
I truly beleive no one understands psychosis unless they have experienced it.
