Weight Gain and AD's

AD's do indeed slow metabolism and often stimulate appetite. That is what sometimes makes them a valuable medication for Anorexics. I had a young anorexic friend who also suffered extreme anxiety and panic. Paxil was the drug she was given and she began gaining weight. Her panic and anxiety were well controlled and she looked much better but she then couldn't stand the weight gain and quit the medication. Now she is back to her own shaking, quaking self and losing the weight. The anorexia won.
