Not all Anti-depressants "cause" weight gain. It can be a side effect for "some" people, but not everybody. Your doctor has to tell you about the medication before prescribing it. Some people, after hearing what the "possible" side effects are, suddenly develop them. Mind over matter? Maybe, maybe not. There are so many different meds out there right now I am sure you can find something to help your depression without worrying about wright gain. Now, with that being said, treating your depression is far more important than a little weight gain. It isn't as if you are going to gain 100 pounds. If you know you are depressed, and you know you need medication to help you, TAKE THE DAMN MEDICINE!
