    Hi, I'm new too! I also suffer from depression , so I totally get it! I take Welbutrin, and I am not sure if it is actually causing weight gain or preventing me from loosing so I am frustrated as well. I am a mommy of 2 boys ages 13 & 18 ,married and work part-time.
    I am also looking for a few support buddies :)

    I've been on here for a week, and suffer from depression. I think my Effexor caused me to gain some of the weight over the past 3 years. My doctor is switching me to Cymbalta soon because the Effexor isn't working as well as it was and when the dose goes up, my blood pressure gets really high. I'm nervous about Cymbalta. I hope it works, and I'm also concerned about more weight gain... Friend request me if you would like. I need all the support I can get!
