Sounds like you may be a canidate for a MAOI. I've learned from personal experience and posts here that pretty much all SSRIs cause weight gain, some more than others. There's a theory that if you gain weight on one SSRI you're likey to gain on all of them.
MelD is right about Parnate in that in a lot of causes it can promote weight loss/stability. I'm on Nardil, a different MAIO and I've have been losing the weight I gained on SSRIs and haven't felt better! Good luck and best wishes!
