Psychiatrists' Judgments About Antipsychotic ... [Psychiatr Serv. 2014] - PubMed - NCBI

Apparently a few side effects never hurt anyone...EPS had little impact on psychiatrists picking a med or even a 15% weight gain.

What did matter? Hallucination and delusion remission were 10 times more important than either of those side effects...while improvement in negative symptoms which cannot even be treated with meds effectively were still 3 fold higher than considerations about weight gain. Funny how it works out when a doc doesn't have to adhere to these things him or herself. Even changes in social interactions were over double the importance of weight.

Keep this in mind next time you go to the doc. I think we've all experienced a lack of concern from the docs over weight gain but a lot of us have to deal with it. Even metabolic syndrome was half as important as a change in social interactions so diabetic but talking with people is apparently the goal. It's almost like they forgot they were actually MDs.
