Answers:
There are newer antidepressants that don't make you put on weight.. What does your doctor "refuse to tell you".? Ask your doctor if you can switch to an antidepressant that doesn't cause weight gain.. Celexa is a good option, but not if your doctor doesn't think it'll work for you..Health Question & Answer
I take Wellbutrin SR (150 mg) in the morning, and Lexapro (10 mg) in the evening - for depression and anxiety.. That has worked very well for me..
I've actually lost a few pounds, the last time I went to the doctor I was 8 lbs lighter than the time before.. I give the Wellbutrin SR the credit for that - it seems to make me more active and "want to do things", while the Lexapro makes me more docile (and helps me sleep at night)..
I hope that helps......

There are many things you can do to help treat your depression..
Moderate exercise for at least 20 - 30 minutes, daily, and up to an hour.. Brisk walking is good, and try to be mindful of the feeling your foot makes as it hits the ground: it is a relaxation technique.. also use daily, one of the relaxation methods in sections 2, 2..c, 2..i, or 11, and/or yoga, Tai Chi, and/or the EFT, in sections 2..q, 2..o, and section 53, at .ezy-build..net..nz/~shaneris" rel="nofollow">http://www..ezy-build..net..nz/~shaneris whichever works best for you..
Take 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily: (certified free of mercury) it is best if consumed with an antioxidant, such as an orange, or grapefruit, or their FRESHLY SQUEEZED juice.. If vitamin E is added, it should be certified as being 100% from natural sources, or it may be synthetic: avoid it.. also take a vitamin B complex which is certified as being 100% of natural origin; a deficiency in vitamin B9 (folic acid, or folate) is known to cause depression.. Around 30% - 40% of depressed people have low vitamin B12 levels.. Depressed females using the contraceptive pill may benefit from vitamin B6 supplements..
Occupational therapy (keeping busy allows little time for unproductive introspection, and keeps mental activity out of less desirable areas of the brain).. As options, if desired, either a known, effective herbal remedy, such as St.. John's wort, (the strength varies, but the supplier should be using a standardised hypericin content, so follow the directions) or supplements, such as SAMe, or Inositol (from vitamin and health food stores, some supermarkets, or mail order: view section 55 at ezy-build )..
Initially, at least, some form of counselling, preferably either Cognitive Behavio(u)ral Therapy, or Rational Emotive Behavio(u)ral Therapy.. Co-counselling is shown in the first 3 pages of section 2, or online therapy, or even talking with someone you feel comfortable with, and a much more detailed post is on page R..
If you are already taking antidepressants, and want to use the wort, I suggest that you taper off the antidepressant, over at least 2 weeks, with medical advice as to how long to take, (I'd be consulting another doctor) before beginning the wort, which is believed to act by increasing the availability of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine, moderately, rather than selectively giving the serotonin levels of the brain a large boost.. The wort doesn't cause weight gain; see section 56, on weight loss..Health Question & Answer
