>>>>>any of the older drugs, well haldol but has the tardive dyskenesia risk<<<<<
Yes, I was going to mention that. None of the so called "older" antipsychotics are worth risking getting tardive dyskenesia.... So, I wouldn't even go there, I know I sure wouldn't! Sorry.
I'm on Seroquel. Worked my *** off this summer (diet and exercise 3 times a week) and lost 25 lbs, even on seroquel, however since my seroquel was recently increased I'm back to feeling starving also and have gained back 8 lbs in a short amount of time, plus I was drinking caffeine and now I'm not.
I use to be bulimic so I get the whole eating disorder thing. I tried other meds after I was gaining weight initially, but they didn't work and I was forced to go back on Seroquel. Sorry I don't have the answer to the weight issue. I can only say that the battle of the bulge is better then me going into madness.
