Has anyone gained weight on Abilify? Latuda seems to have stopped working.

I need a new antipsychotic but don't want to gain weight.

It was weight-neutral for me.

I gained some. Not majorly. It's my understanding that the typical response is weight-neutral.

It was weight friendly for me, but then again I gradually became manic while on it. I had oodles of energy. At that time, I also took Lamictal. I do believe that it was the Lamictal that made me manic more than the Abilify, but I can't be sure.
