  1. JustTrying, I am sorry you had these experiences. I think that more antipsychotics (even when they are prescribed for depression, schizophrenia or bipolar) have similar side effects. I did not check all the information but I checked on a few because I got them prescribed to take as needed sort of, when anxiety takes over despite everything else I am taking. So, I am not a hundred percent sure but I hope you'll to get something that works and has less side effects. I am sure there is something. There are so many medications but it also requires a doctor who is willing to check out the right ones for you. Other than the weight gain, which I would also be horrified of, do you also have cravings for sweets? I get those but not too bad. When I still did yoga and went swimming regularly, it was better. Eating cookies for someone who usually never eats cookies, and staying home during the Canadian winter, is just not so good but everybody in my family felt like only relaxing this winter. Eventually the winter ended a lot earlier. Go figure!
