 Hey, what's up? You guys welcome back to my channel if you're new here. Hi, hello I've got sticking up hairs in the background and I actually brush my hair today See the issue of not going to a hairdresser studying my hair is When it mats together I have to cut it out Which is why I've got little string units at the back, but they won't stay down. So that's fun Anyway Hey, what's up you guys welcome back to my channel if you're new here. Hi. Hello. I'm Lydia And if you are new here make sure you hit the subscribe button join the bar and family I'm aiming to hit 10k by the end of the year. So let's do this teamwork Today I'm doing a request video which is on how some anti depressants make you lose your appetite Now I've been on before I was on a mood stabilizer and so caught it I was on anti depressants because my mood was very depressive So I have about a five-year period in my life where I was just on anti-depressants And I lost a lot of weight. I'll find a picture and insert it here Most warning labels to say weight gain is possible. I know on all my medication It says weight is possible Which sucks right but as a matter of fact I've actually lost weight on On the medications. Well, let's talk specifically about anti depressants So the first anti-depressant I was on was ferocitin. I reacted really badly to it. It set me manic Made me shaky, made me paranoid Not good. So I was only on that for a week So we're not including that one. Then I was put onto Cetelopram Now Cetelopram was special. It didn't do much to my mood So I don't know why I was on it for a year, but I was on it for a year Cetelopram made me lose a bunch of weight and I was trying to recover from my eating disorder I've been in eating disorder recovery for ten years now Which is why if you don't follow me on Twitter, I'll put like a... but this was such a big deal for me So it really reduced my appetite. I Didn't eat breakfast, didn't eat lunch Had to eat my evening meal because of my family. I don't know. It brought me into a binged and purged sort of space so my eating disorder kind of relapsed But on the label, on the side effects and leaflet you get It said weight gain Which I was terrified of But in fact it did the opposite and it Really really suppressed my appetite Then when I was on surgery and oh Search really certainly made me paranoid, but I still talk it for half a year. I thought I'd give it a fair chance So I did Again, I lost weight on it The only medication I've been on that was actually my main gain weight is quits high apia and also metasterepoal Which is an antipsychotic Had a parallel has a warning that this isn't a new gateway and increase appetite, but my appetite's not like great I'm going out for meals, but and I'm gonna take a ways, but that's my own choice. That's not because I'm craving good I just need food Anyway back on to surgery in So Search really in I wish I had something good to say about you. Oh, it's gone. Yay So search really in search really in was a medication that I took for half a year It didn't make me game way. It didn't make me lose weight It didn't really do anything to my appetite. I don't just talk it So I don't really know for that one Then we have metazapine Now metazapine is one of the ones that it's generally sweet and make sure you gain weight Because of how it works So I used to take it at night. Well, I know wonky. Oh, I wonky nail. You can't see it from her autofocus. It's on my face I'm also filming in 4k for the first time. So bear with me This is not my fun to edit Because I want to use Premiere Pro Hey, I hate Premiere Pro That's why you need I don't want to use it for YouTube as well. I Prefer I'm moving easy You just crop it down and delete it. I'm really hurry after the cut Delete and drag it next to it. Anyway, metazapine Metazapine metazapine It didn't I can't really remember it. I think it just sent me to sleep Which is what it's meant to do then we've got vanilla vaccine Now I took this for two and a half years But in the fact seeing is a medication that I talk which Was supposed to help me suicide or thought can't say that it did get very well but It tried I don't have a lot to say about it considering how long I was on it for all It didn't make me gain weight didn't make me lose weight. It was just neutral It didn't really do anything. I don't know why Twitter so long Then there's the anti-depressant that I'm on now, but she's bought the Osteen now I've written some of all the Osteen I've lost weight and in my personal experience It's been the best anti-depressant I've ever been on and it's something I would highly recommend The best thing that's helped my depression has been lithium. I Know this isn't about that, but I thought I mentioned it The best thing for my mood was the theme which I got prescribed while I was in hospital Not last year the year before I don't know. I haven't had my lithium blitz done in about six months Oops But all in all anti-depressants aren't there for weight gain weight loss They're there to help with depression And if it doesn't help your depression speak up and say something can it get changed? I do also take Drasadone, but I don't take it as an anti-depressant. I take it as a sleeping tabler That's why I'm not talking about that in this video So yeah, thanks for watching this video.
