What depression meds should I take?

I need to start anti-depression meds, but th eproblem is, that I have a really sensitive stomach, and I'm sensitive to medication all around. I wanted to take wellbutrin, but I've heard it causes weigh lose, and I don't need that. I weigh only 95 lbs, and I can't seem to keep the weight on me. I would want to be around 115 lbs, but I can't get there, so I need a medication that might help me gain weight! Any ideas???

Search out antidepressants on the web for all the side effects.I take celexa and I am very hapy with it.I have been taking it for 6 years with noe of the side effects you get with lots of anti depressants like tremors.tics and sexual dysfunction.
Good luck Venora

What has your doctor / psychologist / psychiatrist suggested? I never suggest Prozac simply b/c it didnt work for me. Zoloft affects your sex drive but it works. Wellbutrin worked for me once when I had energy problems. I take Cymbalta now and it works well for me. I also took Paxil before but after awhile it didn't do anything for me.
