If the abilify helped before, it's worth discussing going back on it with your doctor. Like others have mentioned, there are add-on drugs you can be prescribed which can help combat the weight gain issues. Topomax is what I've been prescribed for this symptom and I've also heard metformin is sometimes used. I'm sorry for what you've been through and are dealing with. I hope you and your doctor can find a treatment regime which works without added health consequences. Stay strong and cling to hope because things can definately improve given time and proper help.
