PPD medications? Recommendations?

Question

I've dealt with depression and anxiety issues all my life.  I was medicated for a period of time,  but I felt pretty numb so I stopped take them which was really really hard.  I was taking celexa, abilifiy,  and valium. I gained weight too. 
Can anyone tell me what they are taking and if they have side effects like weight gain?  
I have started crying and having Panic attacks again.

Answer

Update-- I was rx'd lexapro 10mg, and first day I feel really happy already. Which is really strange, because I thought it was supposed to take weeks to feel better.

Answer

I take celexa and Xanax for attacks when they are can’t catch my breath bad. It helps a lot. I couldn’t function before.

Answer

I’m on lexapro and it seems to be helping and I don’t feel like a zombie.

Answer

I've been on sertraline for a couple of years. I was on 150mg. Then 100mg. Then down to 50mg because I was pregnant. Still on 50mg and things are manageable. 
I wish you the best of luck! I've dealt with anxiety and depression my whole life.
