I have been taking effexor for 4 months now for depression and anxiety. I have had wonderful results, except for the fact that I feel hungry all the time and have gained weight. In the past, I took Paxil and gained 40 pounds. I lost it all when going off for about a year. Now, I am concerned I will have a similar weight gain,but will not discontinue the effexor xr. Has anyone had experience combining weight loss drugs with antidepressents? My psychiatrist has recommended possibly using wellbutrin or synthroid to help with weight gain? Comments or suggestions?
