A member asked:
Are there any anti-depressants that do not cause weight gain?

For some.: Everyone is different. One person may gain weight on a particular antidepressant and another person may actually lose weight. That being said, of the antidepressants wellbutrin (bupropion) likely is the most weight friendly. There is an maoi patch called Emsam that is very weight friendly also.
