Talk to your doctor. Sometimes you have to try several different kinds before you find the right one.

Go see a doctor. Ask him to check your thyroid hormone data. Sometimes a subfunction of the thyroid can lead to gaining weight without eating too much, depression, and fatigue.
If everything's fine with your thyroid - the doctor will have to look for other possible physical reasons for your gaining weight and feeling depressed. If there are none you should attend a capable psychologist/psychiatrist - one who does not think that medication is everything you need (though it often helps - most people need more attendance). You might try behaviour therapy or psychoanalysis - whatever you think will suit you. Don't
give up! Someone will be able to help!

I believe medication has its place, but it is best to go without if you can 'cos of side-effects. Can you get counselling then come off the drugs in the long-term under the guidance of your doctor, as you no longer need them. There will be a reason why you are anxious, counselling will help you to find it.
