I'm currently getting off of risperdal because of some sexual side effects I can't take. And it's pooped out on helping my anger. I need a new AP that will help with mixed states and anger/iritibility and some intense mood swings. I was thinking about giving Abilify another try. I can't go back up on seroquel because I was a zombie on it. And other APs have too much weight gain. I was also thinking that my trileptal could probably use an increase. And yes I've tried lamictal but I had too much mania while titrating. I called the nurse today and am waiting on a call back. I can't take this constant teeth grinding rage and annoyance all day long. Not one more day! Answers please and thank you!

How about Geodon? it's supposed to be weight neutral. Latuda was not a weight gain drug for me; can't remember if that is generally true but I think it is.

Some anti d work well for rage/anger
We always had ppl on zoloft or celexa with these issues at work Sometimes that rage can be a manifestation of depression turned inward

Abilify was a real weight gain med for me.
I had to stop taking it before it got real bad.
