Hello,
As per my clinical experience, there can be various concerns with the issue of weight gain while suffering from multiple disorders such as
depression,
psychosis and
thyroid issue. The weight gain can be related to possible
- Side effect of anti depressant
- Uncontrolled hypothyroid status
- Food intake related
In my clinic, I do recommend:
- Review of current medications which can lead to weight gain
- Strict dietary measures to avoid all dairy fat, spices, non veg
- Regular
aerobics, meditations
- Avoidance of sedentary life style
- Avoid
smoking and alcohol if applicable
- Control anger
- Thyroid level control via precise dose of thyroid medications
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
