• lexapro weight gain?
|
I really need to gain weight. I have been on Prozac in the past for panic attacks, I felt great but the weight dropped down 10 lbs in the first month. Now the doctor wants me to try Lexapro, for my panic attacks. I would like to try it but I am afraid I will lose weight again. Right now I am at 96 lbs. I need to put on a good 20 lbs. Sure would like some feed back on this. I really need some help with the weight problem. I eat but I guess I burn it off with the stress and worries. All members of my family are on the thin side, but there was a time when I was up to 135... I miss those days. The only thing I feel depressed about is my weight. Panic attacks run in my family and I have been a victim of dom violence, since the dom violence my panic attacks come and go. I have received a lot of help with this issue but my weight is still to low. I have even tried remeron, it helped a bit.
If I start the lexapro, how long will it take until I know if it will help my weight problem?

• Lexapro, weight gain and anorexia...???
|
My doctor just prescribed me to the anti-depressant Lexapro for my extreme depression, PMDD and anxiety. However, I am also dealing with an eating disorder coupled with an adderall addiction. My question is-will Lexapro cause me to gain weight (which will only lead to a "freak out" fast bc I am SO worried about gaining even 2-3 lbs) and if so has anyone else had any luck with any other types of anti-depresants that do not?
Help!
