citalopra(lexapro) i think its called (antidepressent), and weightgain , please help

[always hopefull]

Hi i was wondering if this is the right forum to post in , but i was wondering if anybody else is on the medication i am and experiencing weight gain / unable to shift weight even with vigerous exercising,
Im feeling really down at the moment about my weight i am 5 foot 7 n half inches i weight about 11n half stone , and i feel like im constantly gaining, im getting depressed more and more all the time my depression / anxiety was cured but this whole weight gain and feeling fat thing is making me depressed again , i suffer from major episodes or clinical depression , and i feel i may be on meds for a long time,

does any body know of any suppliment i can take, ? or anything in particular i can do to help shift the weight? i feel ugly and its getting to the point i dont want to be seen by people incase they start talking about my weight,

silly things like im a very lonly person and when i see this hot guy a work i think he would never look at me im not good enough why would he want some 1 big built like me when he could have somebody petite and skinny, my self confidence is falling al the time ( not that i had any really ) but its getting worse,

does anybody have any success storys on loosing weight? tips or there own remidies you found useful? any meds ? herbal ?

any suggestions and all sugestion welcome

thanks for reading

i have been on lexapro for 7 years with no weight gaining problems (from this med). sounds like you need to speak to your dr. about adding another type of med to the lexapro.
