Concerns about weight gain from Lexapro and history of anorexia

Hey everyone. A few months ago, my doctor prescribed me Lexapro to help cope with depression, anxiety, and grief from losing my mom. I've been afraid to get started on the meds because I have a history of anorexia and am worried the Lexapro will make me gain weight and trigger the anorexia. Just wanted to reach out to see if anyone had had a similar issue and/or how common weight gain from Lexapro is. Thank you!
