I could only pray for the anoxexic effect! I am so afraid that in another couple of months it will be so out of control, there will be no turning back! I have gone from 125 up to ???,well, not a size 4 anymore!....need some advice quick!
> Hmmm...Celexa was the first AD I was on. That was about two years ago. I lost weight on Celexa. When Celexa pooped out I gained it all back. Then I was switched to Effexor and I lost the weight again. I've kept it off and since switching (again...) to WB I have no appetite. I need to lose about 15 lbs (I'm 5'3" and weigh 135) so I hope it lasts. What worries me is that since switching to WB I'm very focused on loosing weight. Almost like it's giving an anorexic effect.

I begged the DR to switch me to Wellbutrin, since MOST people lost weight on it...NOT ME....gained more since starting the meds....HELP..is there anything out there for me? I am ready to quit all these meds and deal with the depression, instead of the weight! Any suggestions?
