depression
"I was put on Brintellix for anxiety and was on it for about 8 months. In that 8 month period, I gained about 30 pounds. I did not change my diet at all - and in fact was eating healthier than usual. It seemed most of the weight was added to my stomach area which is highly annoying. I stopped taking Brintellix  (10mg a day) cold turkey and experienced no side effects. It did somewhat help with anxiety, but did I was still suffering from anxiety and it was not worth the weight gain!!"
