Abilify is working great for me. I get side effects to everything and I don't have any side effects with this combination I'm on. For once I'm not gaining weight on my meds. I am all for it, give it a try!!

Make sure you have insurance for the med. Without it here was over $900 a month, so I decided I didn't need it till after I start my new job and get insurance. But it does cause weight gain.

does the weight naturally come on or is it caused by an appetite?

    Woke up feeling very emotional and about to clock in at my place of employment. And can't place it all in writing but not been a good experience with my store manager or his boss. Defamation of my character is a concern. I've been losing appetite and weight. Trying to perform at work to keep myself from hospitalization as a result of toxic masculinity.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
