Major Depressive Disorde
"I am on 5mg of Abilify and 100mg of Pristiq.   I have been on this combination for about a year.   As a result, I&#039;ve been the happiest I have been in many years of struggling with severe depression.  HOWEVER,  I&#039;m torn.   I recently recovered from a very severe eating disorder after 30 years!   My weight in a lifetime has been as low as 70lbs and as high as 120lbs. I am 5&#039; 3&quot;.  NOW after a year of recovery from the eating disorder AND taking the Abilify and Pristiq,  I have gained over 50lbs!!!!  As you can imagine,  I am totally freaked out.  I suffer from arthritis and it is very difficult to exercise, although I try.  At any rate, I don&#039;t know what to do.   I feel great,  but the weight gain is overwhelming and I&#039;m still gaining! HELP!!!"
