.....I wasn't Bipolar....just major depression reoccurant & very suicidal at the time......one of the meds I was put on was Prozac.....I lost so much weight I ended up in an ED treatment center & in & out of the medical hospital for over a year needing IV nutrition.....the Wellbutrin I was changed to after the Prozac did the same thing.....there were other things that were also causing the anorexia....but the meds were the major starting trigger.....I had lost almost 30lbs & I was already small to start with.

If they can develop the drugs in the first place, they should be able to develop them without the weight issues involved IMO. I had other horrible side effects from other meds they tried me on....I won't even consider drugs at this point after everything I went through just being a guinea pig.
