I have suffered from bingeBinge eating eating since I was 20 yrs old. I am now 36. For the last 15 yrs I have been on many many anti depressants, diets, diet pills etc. I have had pretty much bingeBinge eating free the last 2 years while I was on EffexorEffexor Effexor xr and WellbutrinWellbutrin Wellbutrin sr Wellbutrin xl. I came into money problems and had to taper off them. I had totally forgot about my eating disoder....well....I think I thought I grew out of it finally. Since I have been off my pills in the last few months I hve started bingeBinge eating eating again. This last week was the worst. It is now uncontrollable.....NON STOP. I have gained 20 pounds in the 5 months or so. Up the weigt goes every week. This week alone is 8 pounds. I am desperate to stop. I want the old me back aND not be obsessed with eating. I cant go out, I dont answer my phone and will soon lose my job due to this. I have made an apt to see my doctor about going back on meds. I want to know what kind of meds to ask for that will work fast and stop the bingeing and lose weight fast. This sounds like alot but I need to lose this weight fast because I feel if I dont get back to normalNormal saline flush I will have lost everything...I heard topomax (topamax) helps with binge eating. Is this a good choice? Can u add anit depressants to this? Thank u
