Yeah I found that kind of odd honestly...when I was on anti-anxiety meds (SSRIs) it definitely changed me and I had rather severe withdrawal effects.

One pill listed increased appetite and the other had weight gain as a side effect 80lbs later I realized they were doing much more harm than good. Not to mention though it did cure my anxiety and panic attacks it just made me depressed and my sex drive go through the roof. Weird stuff
