My therapist thinks that I check all the boxes for depression, to which I agree because I think I had some severe PPD that just got worse with my second kid and sudden death of my mom. She cannot prescribe meds, so is referring me to a psychiatrist.
I’ve been doing my research on meds and it seems they could make you gain weight. I super struggle with my weight and have actively been trying to loose weight since my second was born a year ago. I’ve lost about 10 lbs and have been the same weight now for months despite increased exercise and absolutely watching what I eat save a day or two here or there.
I know that if I go on meds, which I really don’t want but truly think I need, and gain weight, it will fck with my head even more.
Is any of are/ have been on antidepressants, what was your experience, with gaining weight specifically, but how was it overall too?
