"abilify worked wonders for my chronic depression but i was sleeping heaps and gained 35 kilos in two years. no, i wasn&#039;t eating much!  started only eating one meal a day when the weight started. it was not about food. prior to abilify i went to gym four x week. gained weight despite what i ate n how much i exercised. i ended up quitting the gym and now my heads straight but i am obese and suffer poor self esteem. eh big price for my sanity since i detest being fat. the pill itself does work though and treats it"
