It's curious why you only have appetite issues for part of a month. If you are a female, I'd wonder if it is related to hormone changes/PMS. Stuff changes as you get older, and that includes going from mid teens to 20s, not just 30s and older. These issues are a concern for many women, including those who take zero meds.


I was going to talk to my psychiatrist about these meds. I wouldn’t dare take anything without his blessing.

And yes, I’m female and it is hormone related. I would love for my insatiable appetite to get under control.
