I've been on depression medication for a few months now, and I've actually noticed a bit of weight loss, not gain. My friend was telling me meds usually make you gain weight, so I'm confused. Can some depression medications cause weight loss instead?

Certain medicines can reduce your appetite initially, leading to weight loss. Gentle yoga and deep breathing can help stabilize your digestion and restore a natural balance during this period.

When I started my therapy course last year, I actually lost a few kilos because my interest in food went down. It returned to normal after a few weeks as my body adjusted to the medication.

Loss of appetite can be a side effect of certain antidepressants. Try eating small, nutrient-dense vegetarian meals throughout the day so your energy levels don't drop too low.

I once ignored rapid weight loss thinking it was just stress, and it turned out to be a major health issue. Please don't ignore sudden weight changes, get a proper clinical checkup immediately.
