Hmmmmm, I was reading that people suffering from atypical depression crave carbs more. I was a total carbaholic. Then I started taking 600 mcg of chromium because it curbs the cravings and helps you metabolize carbs and sugar better. My psychiatrist even said it helps antidepressants work better.
Wellbutrin has really curbed my depressive tendency to overeat, too, so I'm feeling better just because of that. I always felt so disappointed in myself for the nonstop snacking (and the subsequent weight gain).
Maybe you could give chromium a try. It's cheap. I paid $4.64 for 100 of the 200 mcg tablets at Wal-Mart.
