I know it's tough, and I hope if you decide to take medications you find the right one for you!!

I mentioned to my doctor that my weight gain was one of the biggest things I worried about and probably was caused by stress and depression, etc. So, he said that Wellbutrin would help with apptetite, etc. So I don't know. There are different "levels" of Wellbutrin and I am on the lowest, but I have heard from another person that Wellbutrin caused weight gain and anger...so I am hoping that is the other forms of it!
I am thinking, that I don't want to take this long term...I go back in mid-Feb. and I am thinking I will already get off it of...I just started taking it a few weeks ago and I have had an upset stomach for about that long...and I eat it w/ food and a full glass of water, like the doctor said.....
I think if I take some supplements (there are different ones, vitamin D, selenium (sp), etc are said to help), get moving/exercise (maybe I can find the energy to do this more, therefore getting more energy) and find a healthy lifestyle (I don't smoke/drink/drugs/etc...just need to eat right)....I am thinking this will help greatly! Maybe....
