So I just started abilify and my current treatment seems to be working in lifting me from depression. I can also say, my appetite has risen considerably. I am craving food when not even hungry. So I ask how can I not gain weight on abilify?

Just my experience of course, but I did gain weight, about 20lbs over 6 months time. However I had much success with it, and felt much better. Exercise also helped the weight and the mood.

exercise, diet. regular blood work in case your cholesterol, blood sugar, etc. prove to be an issue (less common w/ abilify than many other 'atypicals,' but not completely unheard of...).

I switched to generic Abilify and the first few days I was eating like a horse. Now a week has passed and my hunger is subsiding. I was eating everything I could get my hands on but now don't feel as hungry. I think the generic Abilify is working well.
