I’ve gained weight because of my anxiety pill, Zyprexa. Nowadays I still take it, but my eating habits aren’t the best, so that explains why I gain more weight. I am losing a teeny bit of weight because I haven’t been hungry during the day, which I imagine is part of my anxiety attacks, which I end up taking Zyprexa anyway. Long story short, it’s like a cycle.

I understand the feeling nauseous part, I feel extremely nauseous when I first wake up but I think that's die to my hormones being imbalanced because I messed them up as a teenager because of my gender identity crisis. But if your current meds aren't working maybe you should talk with your doctor. If you already plan to that's great. But I leave your meds up to you. I can only suggest things to you.

Hah a blessing in disguise. This is oddly one of the reasons I am looking forward to trying meds. I need a jumpstart with weight loss. Hope you’re able to keep it off and also find meds that work 💕
