Why Does Citalopram Cause Weight Gain And Prevent Weight Loss?
I have been using depression meds containing Citalopram for year and my weight has just gond up and up. Diets are very hard to follow as trying to lose any weight is slow and demotivating.
I have heard that meds containing Citalopram can make it very difficult to loose weight, is this true?
This has been my experience. I have read complaints of many people who gained significant weight on Citalopram. There are always exceptions, of course. I have cravings for carbs and sweets.

Does Depression Ever Really End?
I was diagnosed about 15 years ago and each episode gets worse. I'm in therapy, taking meds; in short I'm working very hard, but still struggling. Recently I heard that someone in their mid seventies took their own life. I'm 59 and terrified that I'll be struggling forever. Depression is such a dark place to live.
I agree. It's always with you just in varying degrees. I just got through one of the worst bouts I've ever had. Now, luckily, it is in the background again and not running my life.
