low carb diet to prevent ssri/lithium wt gain?

Posted by platinumbride on August 9, 2004, at 21:32:00

Does anyone have any experience with this?
It has been about 3 weeks on lithium and zoloft. I really feel a lot better, and I can't believe it. I keep waiting for the rotten feelings to come back.
I'm not sure I am going to stick with the zoloft, mainly because I think lithium made me feel better within a matter of days (surely the zoloft didn't work that fast), so why add a med that is just going to make me fatter? My doc isvery lasseiz-faire about the whole thing. He seems to think that the low carb diet will be theanswer to everything.
Sorry to ramble....I was just really curious about my topic question, and I guess I wanted to say how pleasantly surpised I am at lithium.
