Advice needed, in regards to anti psychotics. I'm bi-polar.

From: chrispche@googlemail.com (ChrisC)


I have put on a stone and half since starting Olanzapine. This is not
acceptable. So I have been doing some online research. I have come up
with these three, now Sulpiride I have tried before. I was thinking of
asking for Amisulpiride as it's more calming. Then I saw this one
Aripiprazole being described by this bloke.
seems down to comments about this med, weight gain is not an issue.

Why do I want out for Olanzapine when it's clearly working. Well I'm
getting up a 2am making Bacon Sandwiches or getting large bags of
crisps to eat when I get the hunger pains. I could try will power, but
I'm not very good at that. I would rather switch to a med that has no
weight gain and doesn't make you so darn hungry and tired all the
time. Drinking cups of Marmites not helping anymore either.

I know none of us are Doctors on here, hence seeing one this
afternoon. I would just like some feedback on what I should do here.
