just been put on this medication and have read ALOT of stuff about ppl gaining weight...this kind of worries me as i would hate to gain alot of weight i think that would worsen my deppression. i feel like i want to ask my psychiatrist if i can change the medication but i dont want to be difficult! i would hate to waste her time! so was wandering if there is any one out there who has not gained weight on it? and also is it the medication or the eating that makes u gain?. and on a different note is it safe to drink alchohol? anyone had any problems ? thanks x
