Wellbutrin and topamax are weight loss.
Abilify gave me the worst akathisia. Geodon is on the list, I'm strongly considering it but then I've read that you need a certain amount of calories for it be effective too...

I'm currently on Prozac, def don't want Zyprexa in the mix. Topamax I've looked into as well, so many say it reallly dumbs them down. More trial and error!
