I’ve been on 5mg of abilify (for BP1) since fall 2019 and have gained about 50 pounds (I’m 5 feet and now 190lbs!). I started with a personal trainer 6 months ago (intense workouts 4 days/week) and have lost ZERO pounds. I know my eating could be better, but it’s not really worse than before ability except the late night cravings (I take my meds at night)! I’m also on 100mg of lamictal. The abilify seems to help me more with anxiety than anything. I haven’t been full blown manic since I’ve been on it, but still get hypomanic sometimes. I’m thinking about asking my psych to up my lamictal and go off abilify so I can finally lose some weight. I’m absolutely miserable now. If I don’t want to die bc I’m on meds then I want to bc of body dysmorphia/EDNOS. I can’t do this anymore. Anyone else with similar stories or advice?
