Seriously, I’ve been trying to lose weight for a year now and fat doesn’t seem to want to burn off. Could this be a hormonal thing maybe? :/

A few reasons:

They make you crave carbs, you then eat more.

You are more active and the body requests more food but you eat the wrong food.

Some SSRIs physically bloat you due to vasodilation.

SSRIs mess with metabolism and fat storage.
