Hello, Anti depressants taken for long time do result in putting weight in the person but ideally these Chat Doctor. The biggest danger of quitting anti depressants abruptly is rebound of your depression. If you feel that your symptoms of depression are getting aggravated, it would be best to talk to your doctor for re issuing a prescription rather than starting medicines of your own. As far as weight is concerned you must take care of your calorie intake and do regular aerobic exercises for at least 45 mi Utes a day. Regular exercises will help you in your depression also. Thanks
