Yeah,
I'm starting to go to OA. (Overeater's Anonymous) The 12-step model has helped me in other areas of my life.
Wellbutrin can help. I'm on it with Celexa and sometimes, okay often, I binge.
Topomax can be an add-on drug to help you lose weight if you are bi-polar. My psychiatrist almost put me on it thinking I might be bi-polar and thinking that it would help me lose some weight. Well, since we determined that I'm not bi-polar he told me that Topomax can have some bad side-effects and that it would be for me only if I were bi-polar.
I don't know if I really helped but...
Blessings,
Simcha
> If anyone has an idea of what would help for depression and binge eating, I would really appreciate it. Since Jan, I have went from 110 to 205 and I cannot seem to stop, I always weighed the same, I am 24 and feel totally helpless. I never leave the house. Nothing seems to help. Are there any meds that might help me to get motivated and stop binging?
