Hi, chummel!
Did you gain weight overall? Antidepressant/anxiolytics can cause weight gain (or conversely, weight loss) in certain individuals.
"Metabolic
Common (1% to 10%): Anorexia, increased/decreased appetite, weight increased/decreased"
Reducing your dosage along with diet and exercise may help or if not you may need to consider trying another medication.
This is a common problem and yes the weight will start to come off . It's not permanent.
Regards, Wildcat
