I've just heard yet again that anti-depressants do not cause weight gain. You know, it's just because we eat more and don't exercise enough. This is the last time I'm just going to listen and realize how much I have failed utterly to live properly. This time I'm going back in there with studies showing a reduction of resting metabolism rates caused by anti-depressants -- but only if I can find them.
So, does anyone here know of any? I found a reference to one study done on in-patient RMR, which did show a reduction. Now I want to find that study and others. Having an analysis that points out how distressing it can be for patients to hear once again how it's our own fault we got so bloody fat on these damn drugs would be nice, too, although not entirely necessary.
Thanks!
