Weight gain on Celexa?

brideofscowboy · June 2010

I've been told no, and most drug profiles say no, yet a bazillion people have commented in forums saying yes.

I wonder if it's a lifestyle thing or the actual meds?

I just lost weight to the point where I'm happy and am terrified of gaining it back.

I did not gain it back, but when my depression was bad I ate a lot more than I should have. Once I got on celexa I found that I had more energy and was eating better. I think some people have a hard time eating when they are dealing with depression/anxiety after having a baby, but I was the oppostite. I found that the medicine helped me lose my weight and keeps me motivated to stay at my pre pregnancy weight.
