anti-depressants????

Question:

i am getting ready to start anti-depressants, my doctor has not prescribed them yet. i am afraid of gaining weight by taking these. anyone have any experience with this? does anyone have an experience with a medication that either made them gain or not gain any weight?

Answers:
I would think an anti-depressant would HELP you lose weight. I even think they're used sometimes for that very reason! When we're depressed we tend to lay around and sleep a lot...when we're happier we become involved in more activities (even if that means you take a shower every day and keep your house clean, wash the car, etc) All those things that you just didn't have energy for before, suddenly you want to go do!

i took some for a while and actually lost weight
