just wanted to add my 2 cents - i felt the same way when i started paxil, what's a couple pounds? but now i've gained almost 20lbs in 4 months and i think about it constantly because my clothes don't fit, it's harder to move around, and i don't even recognize myself when i look in the mirror. my weight gain is definetly affecting my mental state.
i recently started tapering off paxil and onto celexa hoping that would help. i also just met with a holistic doctor that is going to start acupuncture and a new diet plan in hopes of losing some weight and controlling my anxiety a little better too.
