wellbutrin won't make you gain weight, I've been on almost every one and if I gain weight I quit because i'm depressed enough gaining weight just makes me worse. That and the going up on the meds and coming down to go off of them thats bad

ive just been put on sertraline just been put up to 150mg its ment to be good for fibro patents i still not sleeping but my anxiety is starting to carm although still there the dr said i have to give it time

Hi Sharon...it is one of the most frustrating side effects with these meds. Most of us are less active because of our pain...and then to add insult to injury...the med to ease our pain or our mental health issues...makes us gain wait...so depression also gets worse. It is awful! I gained 45 lbs each year I was on Lyrica....my depression got much worse. I hope you find a better med that will work for you without the bad side effects.

so you went from Paxil to Zoloft. Both are anti depressants. I can't take either one, I get really bad suicidal thoughts on them, along with serious panic attacks. I was put on wellbutrin and just barely had a few panic attacks going on them but once it got in my system I'm doing good and i haven't gained but a few lbs and the others I gained a lot.

I was on sertraline for about a yr and a half it did help with the depression but I've put three stone on I've just been changed to one that will help me sleep and hopefully be able to lose some of this weight as dieting on sertraline did nothing I even carried on putting weight on with weight loss meds from the docs .. Having said that it effects people differently I've read some people actually lose weight
