      @Stash I've actually lost weight since starting it, about 20 pounds. As far as side effects, the only thing I do not enjoy about taking this is my inability to feel my true feelings. I walk around like an apathetic zombie and that is SO FAR from who I actually am.

      I take Fluoxetine, but not for anxiety. I take it for depression. I take Buspar for my anxiety.

      I've taken it for years for both depression and anxiety because it's always worked the best for me. I have known some people who have gained weight from it, even though it doesn't typically do that

        @picklepuddles I haven't experienced weight loss or gain from it. It did help me maintain a good weight for a while.
