Some people say they gained weight from
Abilify, I havent as of yet, but I did gain weight
with the
Seroquel, but the benefits outweigh the side effects.
It doesnt matter what you take, all meds have side effects, but it is important that you are aware of them.
I too am only seeing my GP right now. I will be seeing a psyc. once I can afford it., but your GP should really be seeing you for longer appt's even though its just to check up on your meds.
