I was put on Lexapro before I left for vaca. I'm taking 10 mg. I'm on day 4 and I already feel a difference and sorta have since day 2.
Only side effects I've had are dry mouth and some TMJ..oh and I fall asleep quickly after taking it.
I was reading up on it, and I see weight gain is a major issue .
Now people said the same shit about paxil but I didn't gain on that.
So this is going to sound really retarded, but how the hell does it make you gain weight?
The reason i ask this is because it's not as simple question for me to really come up with an answer for.
With B.C. pills weight gain seems to happen due to the levels of estrogen ( water gain etc. )
But with anti depressents etc...there are no hormones so what is it?
Im wondering if it's causing people that don't eat when depressed or have anxiety to want to eat now, or if it causes cravings?
Anyone wanna enlighten me ? Im bored to death and all the googling I do just ends up giving the basic info.
