Hello everyone,
I've tried 10s of ADs from every class,and all caused weight gain to different degrees...I'm not a fat person,but I HATE gaining weight...and that is why I stopped ALL AD's because of this and returned to my usual shape.
I now stick to benzodiazepines because they are the only psychotropics that did not have any effect on weight...but it is not enough...
The only ADs that seemed not to cause weight gain on me were :
Milnacipran(Ixel)
Reboxetine(Edronax)
Bupropion(Zyban/Wellbutrin)
Moclobemide (Aurorix)
BUT,I could not handle them for more than few days/weeks because they had the worst AD side effects from severe agitation,irritation,aggression,to severe depression!...to no effect at all!!If only something like Imipramine or Fluoxetine did not cause the weight gain!!
Sorry for my ramblings...
any suggestions would be highly appreciated,Regards,
Adam.
