It also directly affects one's metabolism.

The current thinking is that psychiatric medications tend to elicit weight gain via a combination of antagonism/ inverse agonism at histamine H1 receptors and serotonin 2C receptors. However, not all medications that possess these characteristics cause prominent weight gain. It is a complex phenomenon that other pharmacodynamic actions likely play a role in.
