Trying to recover

I've just gotten off my antidepressants after just over a yr of being on them, 

and just been so up and down. 

Ive just got some problems on my mind which I would like some outside views on...

1. My partner just won't marry me ( been together 7yrs so it's just the 'day') I don't know why he puts it off so much. And kids too he puts off ( yes he wants both we're not breaking up anytime soon) but he says that coz we just bought our house that its too much?? I dunno these feelings are just so strong 

2. This weight problem since being on the pills. The no motivation to do anything. I'm not obese or anything but I don't fit any of my clothes anymore 😞 

3. The damned 'not wanting' if you get my drift. It's always an argument on that one. 

I dunno I just wanted some outside options on these if you care to write.

Apologies for severely delayed response. We're working on this problem.

Your partner may have commitment issues. You've just managed to get to the point of owning a home together. don't push him into anything or you may push him away. Let him do it in his own time. Don't give up on him either. He is probably wrestling with insecurities, and anxieties, and just a general feeling that he's not ready.

Weight is something I have always struggled with, and am looking at having surgery. sorry, can't help you there.

Sex is a sticky subject. You might try medications to increase libido.
