Crazy Hitch, if you do need the assistance of an antipsychotic in the future, please know there are some that are weight neutral for many. I've been on some weight neutral antipsychotics. Not exactly now, though my current one could be much much worse, for me (our experiences vary). I've been on more serious weight gainer meds in the past, too.
