Psych meds make you fat

I ate well and exercised and still gained 100 lbs. I was not a glutton nor was I lazy. The truth is you can do everything right and still gain weight on psych meds. The problem is a society that hates fat people, the problem is not you. I'm off all weight-gaining drugs now. Not because they made me gain weight---I actually got used to that --- but because they are neurotoxic in general and I realized the likelihood of dying early on a huge cocktail of these meds was likely. I also realized that my emotions and spirit and soul were muted to the point that I had a kind of deadness inside of me. I did not want to live like that anymore.
