>antidepressant is causing me to gain weight like crazy
>psychiatrist just prescribed me another ssri thats supposedly gonna help with that
fml dude

im 240 lbs and i look like shit bc of it >:( i was like 210 in january

I was prescribed a antidepressant and it was killing me, literally. I told the doc about it and I was told that what I was living was not possible, to continue taking it. I stop the medication anyways because I know better and now I'm fine.

>now I'm fine
even like mentally or whatever?

I'm in the rollercoaster. Before the meds I was falling down only. During the meds I was dying and now I'm in the rollercoaster, with great ups and great downs. Back to normal.

>On the meds I was dying
Dying in what way? Head meds cause weight gain but were you becoming flattened? I think that was the anti depressants kicking in and stabilizing your mood before you overcome that hump and eventually go back to feeling things

>>81657206
I hate no one. Doc did his best and I think this was a lesson for him as well. I don't need to try anything else at the moment. I'm not falling down anymore.

>>81657216
Nah. Something very wrong was happening in my head, physically. I felt something wrong rising the more I took the meds. I insisted in the meds until it became too risk to continue.

Could you describe this feeling or state of "wrong"? I'm no doctor, i'm curious what you mean by that. Was it mental? Physical? Like a pressure or general wide sensation? Are you allergic to it in some way? Was it like an allergic reaction, even in a vague sense?

>>81657255
Forget about it. You'll be better not knowing. Focus on what is good for you.

You wanted to kill yourself, hurt yourself, or hurt others? Nigga, this is r9k. This is standard. I'm in love with you, you're beautiful, I will give you endless love if you come to my village

there's a thousand antidepressants to choose from, change them until you settle on one with small side effects (for me- vortioxetine)
the issue is that you people go to lazy psychiatrists who just want to get rid of you
or god forbid you're american and get mind-altering drugs from an internist.
