Seroquel is bad. Can only imagine what zyprexa is like. Literally unable to stop feeling famished.
I’m like this all the time.
For me it’s the Depakote doing this.
Damn meds!

I have restarted it. I take it in the morning and definitely helps during the day. Problem now is late night munchies post evening meds. Think it is something I have to live with.
Have got some rice cakes which are low calorie. Good for med induced munchies.

Risperidone makes it hard for me to eat well. All I want to eat is comfort food.

Abilify can give impulse issues. I have to fight like crazy if I want to not give in to food cravings

Just had a strong coffee. I find that helps suppress appetite

I’m taking 3 things which keep my hunger at bay
- Metformin
- Espresso shots
- B-complex
And I still can’t lose weight. 
But it might be worthwhile trying some decaffeinated coffee as that’s got research behind it saying that it curbs appetite.

Well my hot, strong coffee has totally suppressed my appetite. But will be up all night now.
i got a medium which is 3 slices but i opted for a large turkey slice and a large ham slice, i got unlimited veg, i had chips/mash/roasties diced swede, sliced carrots, stuffing, gravy onions, mashed peas

Man that sounds epic!
I can see where u are coming from…the AP reduces dopamine and comfort eating brings it right back up to get the normal feeling again.
ugh
