Oh yeah, the weight question. I did gain a little weight when I was on the Seroquel alone. BUT I was drinking a lot and wasn't working out and was eating a lot just because I was depressed(not because I had the munchies), but actually I gained LESS than I did when I went through that same kind of phase (drinking, eating a lot) in college and I was not on any meds.
The Depakote has actually helped! I've lost 3 or 4 pounds in about 3 weeks because I've been less impulsive. It's amazing how much easier it is to eat healthily(is that a word?!?). It's like now I choose what I eat rather than seeing something or thinking about something (mmmm, french fries; mmm, pizza) and just having to have it.
