i gained 10 kg with this pos med, just great how the doctor didnt even gave me a warning about the possible side effects. btw i used to be able to eat whatever and any amount i wanted without gaining weight, tbh i always ate like an animal. wasnt age either since i was 34 when i started and roped it after 6 months. it completely removed any single trace of anxiety from my being though, actually insane how effective it was for that cause BUT i was prescribed for social phobia, not anxiety, and it didnt improved at all in that regard, not even doing therapy. when i tried to put a pair of jeans and saw they didnt fit me anymore i never felt so bad in my life, im kind of underweight for my height since im a guy but i dont think its fine to gain so much weight with belly fat.

I gained 12kg with lexapro in 2 years. I stopped taking it 2 years ago and I still havent been able to lose a single pound. People and my doctor telll me to go to a dietitian but I never needed one. Ive always had a beautiful body and I have a decent knowledge of nutrition. It's frustrating and depressing. If your doctor wants to prescribe you this, ask them if theres another option. Im currently on luvox, which doesnt affect my appetite anymore so even though I didnt lose any weight at least I have stopped gained new pounds.

Gained 30 lbs

i gain 20 kg with seroquel and cant lose them...i go to gym sweating all along and previously i go swimming...i m very athletic in the day and also walking about 1hour a day and still my kilos cant be losed...i was always at 80-85kg and now im 100-105kg doing all this gym and cant help lose them...im devastaded and helpless

I gained 40lbs in 4 months on mirtazipine. None of my clothes fit, my feet hurt, I stay out of breath and getting depressed from it.

Just started lexapro, and I feel good off the bat, it’s dose 3 today of 10mg and I hope weight gain is my side effect.

Your still sexy

Me too!!! I was really thin before, like 47kgs and now i’m 75kgs in less than 12 months

Getting a haircut is the worst one for me. The awkward silence, and occasional small talk 😮‍💨 I keep telling them I like growing my hair long but then I have enough and need to cut it. It is partly true but also that way I expose myself to that situation lesser

Hey K! Any results back from the blood work yet?

I gained 10 pounds right away after taking amatryptaline for IBS pain stopped that last week and started very low dose lexapro and it decreased my appetite in half and lost 3 pounds in 4 days . I told my dr if I gain one pound from this that I will stop it or change to something else so I’m very cautious. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hi! Did you get the results of the test in the end? The one for your heart rythm?

Well done girl! I struggle with stupid little bags too. I saw something where you pick an apple or whatever take the sticker off and use it to open the bag, it actually works.

Ive been doing therapy for about 10 years and it definitely helps once you find a really great therapist! Keep with it because it helps

I don't know if I have anxiety or not, but I despise crowds with a passion. I plan my grocery trips for when Costco has the least number of people, early Sunday morning. I do know that when I get out of the store, it's with a sigh of relief though. Good coping mechanism to use the headphones though!

I was 170 in March now it’s January and I’m 259. I stopped taking it without consulting my psychiatrist.

It’s about time my god

Hopefully this MRI tells you something. There's something going on that's beyond my Google medical experience for sure. So glad you found your deer the next morning. So, so proud of you!

Never pee where u hunt

Your weight gain is too hardcore...that fat never goes away, maybe shrinks a bit. Meds gained fat is different than normal fat

i gained 12lbs in about 2 months of starting to take it. completely stopped because it wasn't even doing spectacular things for my depression. I moved onto a different medication.

🤗

I wish you the best of luck coming out of this struggle. I suffered with some of the exact same symptoms - the heat, the anxiety of people thinking "what's wrong with her" - I was able to access therapy and eventually got better. Life is a lot easier now. You are smart and self aware, I believe you will overcome this someday. Please hold hope.

This honestly sounds like a hormonal issue that the Lexapro exasperated

Where the vid when your dad got a hook in him?

Beenbon lithium for 1 year and gained 30 kg.Took me 10 years to lose weight and still nothing with my mental health.I guess once you're on meds you never get out

This shoulder pain along with the migraines has been going on way too long. I hope you get some resolution soon. HUGS!

I gained almost 40 lbs on Lexapro and I tried everything known to man, even quit taking it sometimes to lose the weight... the only thing I found that worked was going low carb/keto. Staying low carb has actually been working really well

Try sleeping next to the bauckin every night 🙃

I gaid 20kg on Lexapro. It made me feel like a zombie and I never had energy!! I'm now on fluoxetine and back to my normal weight

Thanks so much for posting this! Could you maybe explain more about what it was like to get put to sleep? This is the part that freaks me out!! Like, what does it feel like? How do they do it? What does it feel like when they put the stuff in, like do you get sleepy or is more like wide awake to instantly out? Could you have stayed awake if you would have tried or is it impossible? Haha. Basically whatever you remember about that part would be helpful. Thanks so much!

That was not a great experience, but at least it's done. Did you get your results back yet or are hey still with your doc?

For what do you need a colonoscopy..?

It's no fun having to go away for work, I've been away from home now for 22 years working contracts. Such is life if we want to make ends meet, cause there's no work at home right now. Good for you for driving in teh crappy weather. It's no fun, but we live in Canada, so have to face it at some time. Keep teh vids coming Kayla, i love em!

It's been 3 years for me and I gained 30 pounds. I eat better now then I used to but I'm more hungry and tired. My doctor suggested switching to welbutrin to help lose weight. Never go cold turkey off a psych med. I hope to wean off SSRIs very very slowly over months or years. It's in God's hands.

great finds enjoyed the video

hi i just found your channel and i also just started Lexapro. Thanks for sharing your experience. What CBD do you take and how much? I'd be willing to try it out instead of Lexapro.

Physiatrists have NO IDEA what they’re doing. They all cause weight gain. It’s WATER WEIGHT because of the way SSRIs fuck with your sodium levels

🤞🏻

I gained so much weight on lexapro and it took me forever to lose it but it ruined my body.

You aren’t alone I’m in the process of stopping Lexapro now I used to weigh 160 which I still wanted to loose a little weight at that time (3 years ago) Now, 3 years later I weigh 190 and am struggling to get it off. I hate the way I look I feel SO uncomfortable in my body. I’m now counting calories myself to try to lose weight. If it weren’t for my old job messing with my mental health and making it worse I wouldn’t never gone on Lexapro. I hope one day we both meet our goal!

Nuttin wrong wit dat 😂😂

Did you send pictures of the big buck you saw on the camera? Would love to see him. Thanks for the shout-out! HUGS

Hey, I'm sorry that you are experiencing this. Please know that you are not alone. I also gained weight from Lexapro. About 10kgs. It's been two months since I stopped. I also couldn't lose weight while on Lex despite counting calories and exercising. I'm hoping to see some difference no that I've stopped. Hope you can find your answers and eventually lose that weight.

I can't comment. The last day Sarah and I went out this year I forgot my wallet with my wildlife card and RPAL. It would not have been good to get stoopped by the forest nazis with no IDs. I passed between puckering my ass and kicking it for being so stupid.

Simple reality of SSRIs and weight gain: Serotonin and dopamine are on a seesaw. If either is low you will be driven to over eat. Dopamine sweets like candy. Serotonin starches like potatoes bread pasta. If either serotonin or dopamine is too high, it drives the other down and you will overeat. They must be in relatively moderate in their levels. But people don’t live moderate lifestyles nor moderate goals nor have a moderate modern culture. So you end up on a lifestyle and philosophic roller coaster and blocking the reuptake of one and that will drive up the other and lower the target. The pills also ensure you stay on a rollercoaster. The rest of the extrapolations doctors and academics use is to distract from the negative results people are paying them for that we wouldn’t if we knew the truth.

One day at a time.

I gained 60 lbs in 6 years on it even tho nothing changed diet wise. My diet got better actually. Im tapering now - it’s been a year of tapering and I’ve gone down from 10 mg to 3.5. Tapering is excruciating and not a joke. I wish i never took the drug but going through this had taught me so much and I hope I can help others one day. x

Good luck guys. So you're going to be like the bears. Yes they do crap in the woods, LOL
