I started with Celexa 2 years ago in hopes it would help me with my horrible depression/anxiety, and I absolutely hated that drug! For one, I gained 15 pounds while taking Celexa, and I constantly had panic attacks and always felt high! Plus, it didn't help that I couldn't sleep or experience an orgasm! So I quit taking those and figured I'd try and manage my depression/anxiety on my own. However, since October 2012 I noticed my depression/anxiety coming back and with it being almost a year later I've noticed it is so much worse this time around. So just the other day my doctor wanted to but me on Wellbutrin to try and make things balance out.
Now, I've battled Anorexia since the age of 15 (I'm 19 now) and managed to lose all that weight I gained from being on Celexa and a lot more. However, the two weeks before my period I eat nonstop!!!! I gain at least 7 lbs it seems! Well I started taking Wellbutrin 2 days ago and notice a decrease in my appetite, however, I'm still eating a lot...maybe 1400 calories a day. When does your appetite stabilize itself? Or is it because I'm PMSing and my body is ignoring the drug's effects? I don't want to eat everything insight for another week!!!
