I know what everyone is going through. My weight has been
going up and down like a yoyo for 20 years. When
I'm on antidepresents I gain up to 100 pounds, then
when I stop the medication I loose all the weight
in a matter of a couple of months. Right now I'm
on Effexor and Risperdal and have gained the most
weight ever. It is depressing but the alternative
is being off of meds and mentally unstable. I've
tried diets, including perscription diet pills,
but they seem to have no affect. I try and get
some exercise, but my motivation for activity
is very low. You need to try and come to terms
with your weight and realize that what's inside of
you is what counts even though our society promotes
thinness.Good luck and hang in there.
