ssri weight gain....doseage related?

Posted by platinumbride on July 27, 2004, at 14:54:39

Hello everyone, and thanks again for helping me through the past few weeks.

I am now on 600 mgs of lithium and 100 mgs of zoloft, which, if I choose to, I may add another 100 mgs.

Now I am at the point where the very thought of food is nauseating, but I know that this will probably pass and may turn into an eating frenzy, Is this more likely to happen on a higher dose of the zoloft? Ultimately, if it were to make me feel fabulous and all, that would mean me caring enough about myself to exercise and watch my caloric intake, but of course there is no guarantee of that!!!

I DO have to say that I am feeling much better in general. I dont' know if it is placebo or a "honeymoon" period I sometimes have with new drugs and the hope that they will work. I wonder if it is simply the lithium, which I believe works faster than do the ssris.

Looks as if I have introduced several topics here....

If anyone has any clues they will, as always, be appreciated.

Diane
