If you have kids, do you think you could do a video on your experience with pregnancy and having kids?

You are the most reliable health professional thank you for being honest and taking the time to explain so many don’t care and say so dealing with issues it’s too much to complain so trying to find someone else who really cares is stressful

my answer:
stress influence digestion
you start getting hungry when you feel less bad

Greasy stools don’t flush wellbetter fat in my potty than in my body.

Thanks a lot for the information. I’m 30 yrs old female and have been taking Paroxetine and clonazapam for last 10 years suffering from anxiety disorder and panic attacks and weigh almost 180 pounds and it’s very difficult to lose weight.

Whoever is filming while you were on a walk did an amazing job at keeping the camera still

Can you do a video on how to deal with negative symptoms like lack of interest, reduced feelings (also not being able to feel happy) and thus limited expressions that stay when on meds? I am currently struggling with that and feel kinda sad about it..

So many years of my Dr avoiding this question. What an expensive pain in the ass. But anyway time to focus on the present and the future.

My mate laughed when I told them I was going to become slimmer with just implementing Custokebon Secrets, but after I showed them great effects right after I used it they are begging me to tell them about it. Of course I won’t let them know the details about this diet plan, lol

Impossible if you already do thisone hr cardio, lean meats and veg, good sleep, etc. ��

I started taking Lexapro Jan 27 and I’ve switched to Zoloft 3 days ago. I switch because I gained 31 pounds on Lexapro while I was still dieting and exercising. I also tracked my calories and carbs intake with MyFitnessPal. My depression got so much worse on Lexapro and I used to get migraines and headaches. Hopefully Zoloft is different and I can finally lose this unwanted weight. So far I have no symptoms, just gassy and a bit more energetic ��

I know this is weird and not totally on topic but when I found out that my son was going to have a physical birth defect I was devastated and now that he has grown and gotten older (8) I can be thankful for the treatments that are available even if he still has some problems. Even 30 or 40 years ago he would’ve been considered a cripple and his life would have been so different. I don’t know why I typed all this. I just thought maybe it could help someone from being super discouraged.

Thanks for this. I’ve been on psych meds for a very long time and have aways struggled with obesity. I’m on a diet.

Thank you for your videos. I’ve searched for years about this. I gained 40 pounds in less than a year on Paxil. A Psychiatric nurse weaned me to fast office Paxil and I ended up in the hospital because of it. I hate looking at myself in the mirror. I have no control over my eating and it just makes me feel worse about myself. I feel hopeless about the continual weight gain. I am currently on Zoloft and Lamictal.

Thank you for this! I’ve been on Seroquel for 1.5 years and have gained nearly 70 pounds. Before I was 117 pounds, now I’m 183 pounds. It’s becoming a problem and watching this was really helpful. I’ve been eating garbage and never exercising. This motivated me to make a change. Fingers crossed I have the same luck as you

great explanation, Dr. Marks, very thorough and clear. Every time I have a psych question I go to your channel first!

Thank You Dr Tracey, I have gained weight with my SSRI med’s, it’s the only downside I’ve experienced from it though!!:-)

Just dont be a snowflake, dont do drugs and you wont have to worry about the side effects

Prozac made me lose appetite, lose a bunch of weight and look so emaciated. I could not eat anything at all. I also had trouble swallowing. Sadly my depression resisted all other drugs, I have to keep taking it. Why does this happen?

(I was put on olanzapine to counter this side effect)

Has anyone tried Custokebon Secrets? (search on google) We’ve noticed several awesome things about this popular weight loss secrets.

I gained 110 lbs after my idiot doctor gave me too many bipolar pills. I feel even more depressed and miserable. There is no cure for mental sickness. I managed to lose 31 lbs but I rather be thin and miserable than fat and miserable. Being fat shamed hurts a lot. Being fat gives you more health problems too.

How effective is Custokebon Secrets? We have heard several amazing things about this popular weight loss method.

Aripiprazole 30mg made me gain a lot of weight. Now I am on loxapine and have lost Weight

Thank you for this video. I took fluoxetine (Prozac) last year for 9 months, and it made me gain 44 pounds and made me worse mentally. It felt like a waste of time since it didn’t help much anyways

My best “medicine” against weighr gain was my friends. The medicine made me inactive but my friends pushed me every day to do some kind of work out. I also changed my plates to smaller ones so I couldn’t overfill them. I was feeling a bit hungry after finishing the meal but it was a bit different. A bit like regular and diet soda. Both are sweet but you taste the difference. I did get munchies so I never purchased junk or if I didn’t resist, I’d had to walk to the furthest store and back to buy it. Didn’t always work of course but I didn’t gain much at all untillmy doc told me I didn’t need the meds. Best day of my life and best choise I did was starting the treatment. It wasn’t easy but the end result was totally worth it.

Watching your videos really help me look at my life and how I can make changes for the good.

FINALLLY! A real answer that makes sense! Doctors keep acting like these ssri’s and snri’s are not causing weight gain! I was on Effexor for hot flashes and I went from a steady weight (even on menopause) on Effexor, I gained 10 lbs FAST! I got off of it after 2 month! Doctors (except this one) think this all in our heads! “Stop over eating” thanks for paying attention to what people are saying and not just adhering to what pharmaceutical industry tells you. THANKS! Too bad there are. It more docs like you!

I have schizo affective and legit came so close to developing a literal Binge Eating Disorder so many times on Latuda. I could have eaten someone’s face off where the medicine made me so hungry it just isn’t natural. If worst comes to worst I’m going to have to live with my schizophrenia untreated and use coping techniques to stay grounded in reality.

I have ADHD and have had a hard time with the stimulant meds while they worked great for a while it ended up making me irritated and freaked out in the late afternoon so it was determined that I have a depression as well. The problem is I’ve tried SSRIs alone and now together with the methylphenidate medication but still haven’t found relief so my dr. Has suggested quetiapine in addition the Foquest (methylphenidate) I’m worried for 2 reasons 1 is it’s an anti psychotic used for schizophrenia and 2nd I struggled to loose weight and lost it I’m not willing to gain it back. Will the combination of these 2 drugs cause the weight to creep back on? And is this a safe combo to take? I’ve heard some people have had good results but I’m so worried if this combo doesn’t work and I cause more problems for myself in the long run.

I was on Zyprexa and gained 60 lbs while I was on it and had to get off of it because I was gaining weight at an alarming rate

Changing from Olanzapine to Quetiapine helped a lot with this for me. I told my psychiatrist that I was putting lots of weight and he changed my meds.

*Also stretchmarks*. Big red streaks that never fully heal and scar. Severely affects confidence, forever. Very common with psychiatric medication weight gain & doctors NEVER warn about it.

I’m on Olanzapine which is causing weight gain so I’m thinking of asking to be put on Ziprasidone which is less prone to weight problems.
I don’t eat junk food or drink alcohol.
I’m in my fifties so my metabolism is slower.

I was worried about that side effect when I started taking escitalopram but different people react differently and I actually lost weight, though I can still maintain and go up and down a little bit. My cousin gained a lot on hers but I don’t know what she was taking.

The weight gain on anti-psych meds is truly terrible. (I take them for severe chronic insomnia) I have to go literally hungry for hours not to gain any more weight. I am 6’4 guy currently at 250 lbs. (Maybe even more now) I have gained like 20 lbs during the quarantine due to lack of exercise. It has to slow down your metabolism or something. When I was on Xanax instead of this, I managed to keep my weight at 210 lbs without much effort. (Became addicted to benzos, so they had to switch to last line treatment) I have plenty of side effects (like lowered intellect and motivation) from these meds as it is not really made to treat this condition. (And Paliperidone is one of the better ones, I wished I would die on most they have tried on me before)

I wish I could gain weight… Nothing works. I can eat as much as I want and gain nothing. I STOPPED working out and LOST 50 pounds!! Like really?!! Wtf!! I smoke all the weed I want (making me hungry) and still nothing…

Hi, thanks for the video, very helpful. Would you recommend any of the weight loss medications with lithium? Thanks in advance.

Hi i’m on quatierpine have gained 4 stone and can’t seem to get it off anyone else on this medication is ish there was a different sort olanzapine was worse

Also Epilepsy drugs (Epival, Lyrica) cause weight gain. Basically I am starving all the time, can’t eat and must work out. But then if I work out too hard I will get tremors that will not go away until a good sleep.

Thank you! I am on Cymbalta, Depakote, Ativan, and Emgality (this ones for chronic migraine) and in the past 2 years I have gained 40 lbs. Thank you for being honest about it sucking but recognizing that it’ll be ok.

Hi lauren,please reply me…when doctors findout about your disease,how many months passed after finding out that you hace schizophrenia….please tell me….

Anti psychotics are not good,your mental issues are there because you have to understand something

As specialist, I do believe Custokebon Secrets is actually great way to lost lots of fat. Why don’t you give it a shot? maybe it’ll work for you too.

Thanks lauren….my daughter was right perfectly same like you…suddenely she started talking with herself in february,I didnt realise…now she cant sleep until 3,4 days…even we didnt realise before….on 29th of may,we suddenly finout because sge stsrted crying a lot….but its started happening in february…but we contacted three weeks ago to the doctor…Is it treatable,if its 4 month old disease

Thank you Lauren! I am dealing with weight gain! I just started a new job and it is physically demanding!

Great video. You can read more about medical weight loss here https://link.medium.com/O2Frhfxyz3

My dr has given me the choice of CONTRAVE or RYBELSUS to help me achieve my weight loss goals. Which one should I choose?

Guys. lost a lot of fat doesn’t need to be hard (I used to think it did). I will give you some tips now. Look for a popular lose weight secrets called Custokebon Secrets (google it). Thanks to it I have lost crazy amounts of weight. I should not even be speaking about it cause I do not want lots of other guys out there running the same game but whatever. I am just in a excellent mood right now so I’ll share the wealth lol.

unfortunately COVID has closed the gyms in my area. that’s really hurt my weight loss goals.

Maybe no one mentioned it, and maybe you see it differently, but in my opinion you look way better on the After picture. In the Before picture you look unhealthy skinny. At least in After one, after weight gain, you’ve lovely curves in all the right places.������

The strategy I have for avoiding weight gain which does not work perfectly is to eat a nutritious brand of frozen dinners which provides balanced meals that has about eight different meals and basically eat only that except for occasional treats. The key detail here is to find a nutritious brand of frozen dinners that provides balanced meals and which has some variety. EatingWell frozen entrees marketed by Bellisio Foods, Inc is decent brand of frozen dinners. Spending hours planning meals and cooking meals would not be a strategy that I could follow for long. Choosing the right antipsychotic, as you state, is also very helpful. Exercise helps one feel better and is excellent in terms of general health but unless one is running marathons I don’t think that moderate exercise results in much weight loss.

I wish you would read this. If you can you Talk about Viibryd, Tribtillex and Fetzima… how they differ for example Zoloft is very good for OCD I guess is for the σ1 binding also works dopamine transporter (DAT) inhibition and sigma-1 (σ1) receptor binding but normally is known as a Sective Serotonin only more in depth books going into details. My question is Viibryd besides the famous 5-HT2 o A2 I don’t that works on anxiety what other part of the brain does it touch, and does it really causes no weight gain?

Hello there, I want to know if Custokebon Secrets, will work for me? I see lots of people keep on talking about this popular lose weight diet plan.

Hello doctor. Can xanax cause weight gain? Just started taking xanax & it has increased my appetite. I do intermittent fasting to avoid weight gain from xanax. Will that help?

I was super under weight and struggled to gain anything.. teaches at school.. and friends mum’s always tried feeding me.. I’m assuming they thought I had an eating disorder.. but after a while on the meds I gained 15kg and i was just so happy about it.. since then I’ve gained more and i feel now that I’m happy with my body..

Dr Marks
I found it this is the video! Vraylar what is the worst for gaining weight I’ve ever taken also Aripiprazole garbage ��. I am so happy to hear about these receptors I talk to my primary care about this problem and he goes I talk to the drug representatives and I said why do you put out these medications with this massive weight gain and he explained me that some of his patients are now diabetic from taking antipsychotics a friend of mine Laura from Mississippi has tardive dyskinesia really bad she takes three antipsychotics per day something needs to change the FDA is a freaking mess!
Thank you very much for this informative video and help me get off some of these lousy medications. I hope somebody could read this and try Lamotrigine aka lamictal. The only part I don’t like about Lamotrigine is the headaches and the insomnia. Other than that no weight gain. I’ve lost 6 pounds since getting off of this cocktail of medications. Including vraylar Latuda Wellbutrin and trintellix. No thank you.
General repair

Do you just put on weight by eating the same foods and quantities as you did before you started taking the pills? Even if you feel hungrier but you still manage to eat normally or as much as you did before the medication, how can you put on weight?

You looked anorexic in the left photo. I know because I was anorexic at age 14 and even though my weight was way below ideal body weight, I saw myself very, very fat! I also had body dysmorphic disorder.

I have schizoaffective. I have tried 1200kcal and exercising 5 times a week. I only lost 20 pounds in a year. I couldn’t sustain that lifestyle so I switched to just diet of 1200kcal a day. I kept gaining weight everyday, 5 pounds a month. Yes, I weighed everything I eat and recording everything I ate. I still gained weight. I feel so hopeless since I can’t stay on the 1200kcal diet, I’m so hopeless. I exercised 3 times a day and exercised with a trainer and the nutrition plan. I only lost 1 pound a month. I have asked my doctors and they just tell me to diet, which I already did, and exercise, which I already did. The lifestyle starved me too much so I don’t know what to do.

You are like a really smart woman, thank you, I started my meds last week. And I have never eaten so much in my life, I’m like a skinny person too. I’m 5 feet 9 inches and 120-125 pounds. I’ve noticed myself eating and then feeling stretching pains in my stomach but still not feeling full, I have noticed excessive bloating from over eating, but yet I still want to eat. I have gained like 5 pounds in one week, I have always had trouble with gaining weight and all of a sudden its being packed on, Now I know why ��

thanks for your video. let me share my experience of exercise. it not only helped me loose weight but also helped me cope with anxiety and depression. please do not quit exercise

Oh my I’m commenting my thanks for the video before I am even done watching, but this is one of my biggest issues.��

Protein powder………………….. suppresses your sugar cravings. One shake a day. Check with your Doc before you start taking it. Vegan protein powder is usually kinder on the stomach

My tips from personal experience (on Seroquel for 9 months):
-Ask if you can take your dose at night or have extended release. This makes you less prone to feeling cravings all day.
have cheap, low calorie snacks on hand. I love plain Cheerios, baby carrots, frozen fruit, air-popped popcorn, and even ice cubs.
ALWAYS carry gum, sugar free hard candies, and bottled water with you when out and about. Dry mouth makes you crave things like ice cream or soda.
If your energy is too low for cardio workouts, you can do free, 10 minute beginners workouts on YouTube! I do one for arms and one for legs. It will help build muscle with boosts your metabolism.
As a rule, try to consume more protein and fresh fruits/ veg than plain carbs.
Don’t starve yourself. Underrating will only make your metabolism worse, and hurt your mental health as well. Try to eat consistent, moderate portions.
Talk to your doc! I was really upset because I gained ten pounds rapidly when I first got on the medication. My doctor lowered the dose a bit, and I started doing these tips. Since then, I have maintained the same weight (but I think I gained some muscle!)
Get your blood tests regularly. Doctors recommend blood tests twice a year/ four times a year. These will see if your thyroid and blood sugar are normal. If there is problem, they can treat it.
�� Best wishes ��

I lost 8 pounds on two weeks because of effexor. And I’m slim so the difference was very noticeable.

Keto has completely prevented me from gaining weight. I got bipolar disorder, ocd and hypochondria, exercise and this diet helps but by no means cures it. I’m actually really glad you do the keto too because my psychiatrist thought I was being silly by doing this diet.

Over the years I’ve tried 4 different antidepressants. They all decreased my appetite!

Adrenaline accelerates metabolism so anything depleting dopamine will deplete that too, resulting in all kinds of shit.

Wonder why you don’t try rtms, in theory working out plus eating super clean could negate most of the sides. As a person battling severe depression, ptsd and borderline personality disorder I can somewhat understand you.

Kind of off topic, Good god how do you cope with stigma? (does your antipstchotic make you that indifferent?)

Wow, now I know why I gained 40kg in about 3 years �� I took paroxetine because of depression and… an eating disorder ������ I’m so mad now!!! I stopped taking paroxetine and could finally lose weight. I lost 25kg in about 1,5 years but there are still about 7kg to go… I would never take antidepressants again.

I love how open you are, we need more people like yoy to get rid of the stigma of mental health. I have a family member who struggles with mental health for years and your videos have helped me understand better in giving the right support.
I was wondering if you had a blog or anything that’s not YouTube. Thank you and
God Bless

I struggle with weight on my paroxetine but I need to take it

I gained 10 kilograms in 1 month while taking escitalopram and clozapine even though I eat less and do intense workout 4 times a week. ��

my doctor recommended i eat this when i feel excessively hungry. cabbage leaf,plain greek yogurt, garlic powder. its digusting but hear me out. the fiber and the protien make you feel full and the garlic powder dries your mouth out and as a plus it tastes like sour cream and onion after a while.

you must not hear voices a majority of the time because to ran an ultra would be very hard with voices.

I have fibromyalgia which is causing a lot of chronic pain especially in my lower back, hips and feet. I am currently taking paxil cr 37.5 mg and glucophage xr 1000mg and I’ve gained over 50 lbs over 2 yrs. I’m unable to do any type of strenuous exercise because of the pain and I am an emotional eater. The most I can do is mild, gentle short workouts. What can I do to lose weight?

There are actual studies on physiological reasons for the weight gain on psych meds, completely out of a person’s control. I encourage everyone to do research. This is why diet won’t work for many people because of the way the body stores fat completely changes. I gained weight on meds and couldn’t lose it until 2 years after. Meds can completely alter your metabolism, and does not just alter the signal in the brain that tells you if you’re satiated or not.

Would intermittent fasting work for the weight gain on pysch meds anyone?

Gee, sir or ma’am, you are sick and depressed so take these pills which will make you fat and more depressed. I gained 60 pounds in 15 months on my bipolar medication. I work out and have a very strenuous job, yet the weight came on like gangbusters. I won’t even go to the beach anymore because I look like a whale. Thanks big pharma!

Thanks for the video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard the talk about Nanackson Guardo Philosophy (just google it)? It is a smashing one off guide for revealing the secret to get rid of panic attacks minus the normal expense. Ive heard some decent things about it and my work colleague finally got amazing success with it.

I have been on Metformin now for just over 3 months. I work out three times a week at a Live Well Exercise clinic but have only lost about 7 pounds. It’s depressing when you work so hard and see so little in the results.

Wen I gained lot of weight because of meds I told my psychiatrist about it but he refused to admit that its bcz of meds my experiences with psychiatrists and psychologists are aweful. I’m from india and here doctors dont hav any empathy for the patient. One psychiatrist blamed me that I wasnt trying enuf after I told him meds were not working and I’m depressed whole day, it made me cringe. I used to cry all day bcz of anxiety and depression and had terrible lethargy. No doctor helped me with lethargy…less said the better about psychologists they r even worse…i lost 15 years of my life bcz of mental illnesses, schizophrenia is the worst disease anybody can b affected with and I hav been a victim of it..although I’m better now and hav kicked the meds completely i do get depressive bouts and hav no motivation to do anything…i wish that no one ever gets schizophrenia.

I read lots of superb reviews on the net about how exactly Custokebon Secrets can help you lost crazy amounts of weight. Has anybody tried this popular fat burn method?
