In reply to Benzodiazepinesweight gain, posted by darkhorse on December 22, 2004, at 9:02:05
The reason I'm asking is that I noticed that in some threads people sometimes say that they gained weight while on x drug and a benzo,and some even concluded that the benzos were behind the weight gain,not the other x,and x drugs which are well-known to cause weight gain.
I was wondering because I myself took lots and lots of psyc medications,and,based on general info and my experience reached a conclusion that benzos do not in any way directy cause weight gain.The only thing,as mentioned before,is that when one is free of stress or anxiety,might be able to enjoy a good meal more,but they do not STIMULATE appetite or fool around with our metabolism.
I would be very surprised to know about somebody who took only benzo and gained a huge amount of weight...What do you think?
Thank you all.
Adam.
