Last year, zyprexa was added to my combination of Topamax and Zoloft. It really stabilized my moods and the mental confusion. Unfortunately, I gained 65 pounds in the year and developed OCD. Anyone out there battling these problems. Any advice? Thanks, Tessie

Ask your doctor what he/she thinks of the newer atypical antipsychotics like Seroquel. Most people don’t gain much if any weight on it, and a lot of people lose weight that other drugs put on them. The problem is, all APs tend to cause OCD. The standard treatment for OCD is an AD like Prozac…but Prozac can mess you up worse than OCD. Ah, the fun of psychopharmacology! Stress reduction helps me out a lot, and not just with the OCD.
