SSRI's are noted for slowing weight loss. But please give LC another try because you wont know until you do.

I prefer not to use SSRIs. There are other options to try, not everthing has the same level of effect. I use lots of sunlight--getting outside to just walk around, puttering. Just need 30 sumer-60 minutes winter. Or a special light.

I also looked into St Johns Wort.

Usually have 5 HTP available at all times. My son uses it every day, It is the chemical that will make seratonin.

ALso you might concider a moderate level low carb as the carb foods help to make seratonin too. Sweet potatos and beets are high quality high carb foods that Dr AMen mentions as seratonin boosters.

Lots here to think about. Perhaps do some in depth research and talk to the doctor the prescribes the SSRI.
