[QUOTE="judela60, post: 337430, member: 8902"] Wow - sounds like my son, Jackson, who is now 9. He has steadily gained weight since he has been on Abilify, and at this point, the eating has become so much of a battle, that I doubt if the medication has anything to do with it anymore. While he had been up to 15 mg a day, he is now only on 2.5 mg of Abilify, but his hunger has not decreased. He is also on Tenex, (the Guanfacine generic), but I do not think that has had an impact on his weight. In any case, I have let him eat as much as he wants until he gets sick, and that still does not stop his hunger. Like everything else, he cannot delay gratification, so he has to eat as much as he can, as fast as he can. I guess I just have to hope that he will have a lifestyle change which will impact the availability to eat on impulse. Let me know if anything works! - Judy [/QUOTE]
