I can totally understand the stress you are feeling, i've just recently found out that I'm not fitting into pants I use to be able to fit into. I've always been a tiny person and the fact that my size 2's and less are too tight then I worry, I went on a fruit and veggie diet, but that just doesn't cut it, you need protins ect for a healthy diet. My shrink is keeping track of my food intake, I'm writing down what I eat and what time. I thought at first that my belly was from my remeron, but it wasn't, I think it's just because I'm getting older, (almost 24) and I'm just starting to fill out all around, I'm still at a small size, but i've been stressed out about it, I don't think i've actually gained weight, then again I haven't been able to get on a scale, well because I don't have one. I'm trying to excercise every day or every other day, but i've been slacking in that department. I'm self consious, and i've always been about my stomache, but I'm just gonna live with it, exercise and try and eat healthy. I tend to gorge into things I love like chips, licorise, nibs, chocolate.. but luckily in my household we don't have any of that but chocolates from easter and i've been staying away, only having one here and there.

I'm glad your talking to your doctor, good luck., Sorry you are feeling so down, I can in away like I said understand.

Have you tried getting into some kind of workout program to help get rid of the weight?

I was on Zoloft for clincal depression, SAD's, panic and anxiety disorder and reminants of ptsd, after 7 yrs it just stopped working, then went on Celexa which made me feel like absolute crap, went off that now i'm on remeron.. it's helped me out alot with depression especially, so right now that is under control..

I'm babbling so i'll end this.

*hugs*
