Abilify (aripiprazole): Abilify (aripiprazole) may be an option. It has been linked with weight gain although typically less marked than zyprexa or seroquel.

First please have a complete physical examination to know if you have an illness. If not, your medication should be managed by a Psychiatrist. If you are not confident in your Doctor please see another for a second opinion. Please see a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy to help.
