I think, but I really don't know, so I'm not sure why I'm speaking up, the appeal of Abilify is that it doesn't just inhibit (antagonize?) dopamine. However, it's a real weight gainer.
I've benefited from risperidone at a tiny dose without significant effect on my weight. But generally I don't respond to AAP's. Stimulant add-ons or stimulating ADs are best for me. Wellbutrin. Right now I take nuvigil with brintellix.
Oh, I remember you're on a maoi, so you're options are limited. Maybe low doses? Good luck :)))
