I switched from lexapro to cymbalta, for exactly the same reason as you are describing, I gained about 50 pounds in a year, and I couldn't stand it any longer, it also caused me short term memroy problems. Now I'm on 60mgs on Cymbalta and have been since september, I have not had additional weight gain while on it, and have lost about 5 of those pounds but haven't changed my diet at all, so I'm sure if I cut back on my eating I could lose what I gained on lexapro, anyway I'm rambling. Give the Cymbalta a try, I don't think you will have weight gain on it as you did on lexapro. Good Luck
