It took me about 5 different meds first, but I've finally found a med and dose that is working for me--not perfect, but leaps and bounds ahead of where I've been over the past few years since I started medicating. I know many different meds used to treat anxiety can cause weight gain, and this has been the case for me. I started out a bit overweight but I've gained about 50 lbs over the past couple of years now, and dieting takes off a little, but not most of the extra weight. It took me SO long to find what works for me that I don't want to go off my anxiety meds, but I can't keep dealing with this weight gain and the potential health issues that come with it. Has anyone had success in dealing with this? Either some other med that helps with the weight gain, or something. IDK what, but I can't keep on slowly killing my physical health for my mental health, or vice versa. Any suggestions are appreciated!!
