I’m sorry your dealing with it
Thank you Yeah, the thorazine doesn't seem to be the problem so I guess it's the abilify. I'm just unsure of what to do because the combo of meds I'm on is the only that has ever made me this stable. I don't want to give that up, but at the same time I don't want to gain massive amounts of weight and end up with diabetes (it runs on my fathers side). I had gained 100lbs on a med, invega sustenna, before and lost it all after being off it so I'm worried about gaining it all back again :/
