Anyone here on antidepressants?

I’m asking because I literally started on new meds today, and the side effects read “could experience weight gain”. Is it water, or appetite increase? I’m going to ask my doc as well, don’t worry.

Answer

For me on Zoloft, it was largely a combination of appetite/desire for fat/carb combos and not caring about much of anything, but I figure that some of it was also retained water because I was able to lose the weight faster than makes sense otherwise. Bupropion has always been much better for me in all regards though and it’s what I’m taking now without issue.
