[QUOTE="Zastro, post: 1504720, member: 372003"] I actually have the form here from the diabetic specialist and in it where it says what caused my diagnosis of type 2 diabetes it reads *induced by anti-psychotics*. I have been spending a lot of of time resarching anti-pyschotic medication, its medication trials and known problems and from what I can tell, quietapine has one of the highest risks of giving someone type 2 diabetes of all the family of those meds. The only one's I have found that have no risk of increasing blood sugar and giving someone diabeties is Aripiprazole and Ziprasidone. Neither of those increase weight gain and in-fact have been proven to be weight neutral and even can help to lose weight and they also have no effect on blood sugars. They also basically do the same job as quietapine in regards to anxiety. I have put in a request to be switched to one of these medications with support from my GP. [/QUOTE]
