> > I have just started taking PAXIL and believe that part of my reason for needeing depression meds is due to my life-long struggle with weight-loss. Needless to say, reading about all this weight gain is scaring the hell out of me. I plan on speaking to my Dr. about this but am wondering, has anyone actually lost weight (or at least maintained their current weight) while taking Paxil?

> Yes, me, I know at least 2 people who didn't gain weight on Paxil. Try it first maybe it's all right for you !
> Esquisse.I gained about 30 pounds in the first 4 months, then another 10 slowly. I have been taking it for 2 years now, and even though my moods improved a little, I don't think it was worth it for me in the long run. I hate my body now and that creates more depression! I wish I would have known before!!!
