I recently went off Depakote due to
weight gain of 50 pounds. I was started on Lamictal and within the first two weeks gained another 5-6 pounds. I stopped that immediately. My doctor wants me to start on Abilify but I declined after I read the side effects. Has anyone had any uncontrolled movements, weight gain, tardive dyskinesia, etc. with this medication. If so, please let me know. I really need a medication to replace the ones I went off of but my doctor is giving me no other choices.
