karen,
i feel that life is a cyclical event.. you are depressed because you are fat, so you eat to calm the soul, you become more depressed because you are fatter....and so on and so on...
i have tried every type of SSRI's out there. I finally realized that my depression stems from me being overweight. So, my solution is to wean off these meds, and go for the lap band.. I hope I have made the right choice.
