      I gained weight when I started taking my antidepressant. I was upset about it at first, but it hasn't affected me too much.

Weight gain can be a side effect of some antidepressants, but it varies from person to person. Some people have reported gaining weight while on certain medications, while others have not noticed any significant changes in their weight. It's also suggested that some antidepressants may increase appetite which could lead to weight gain. However, there are also suggestions for trying different medications or therapies if weight gain becomes a significant concern.
