Are there any anti depressants which won't cause weight gain?

I had a thread earlier,have gained a stone in four months on citalopram and get awful bloating and water retention too. I am wondering if different anti depressants could be better for me for that? I am feeling so much better, I can't function without medication but am on the verge of panic attack over the weight gain and whether it will keep going up.

Is there a possibility I could not have the same effects with other drugs?

yeah bupropion is good. but apparently there is cannabis- or something like that- in it some hcp told me long time ago.

sertraline has made me want to eat almost constantly for the whole time I have been on it - a month. Was previously on Citalopram and no issues at all, well, except it was shit.

My dr wants to put me on Sertraline whenever I’m off the Seroxat but not liking the sound of it tbh
