This would be an interesting hypothesis to test—especially in cases where obesity may have been an outcome of people self medicating with food. Fits my own experience too (keto is basically the only intervention that worked for me, and only after I've been able to peel myself away from carbs for a few weeks)

I've been doing a good job avoiding GLPs just because I want it as a last resort option. But still, it wouldn't at all surprise me if this turns out to be one of a few explanations for the link.



It doesn't seem to be a popular explanation because it's downvoted to -2.

I'm not complaining, but rather curious why. Is it provocative to suggest that obesity can be associated with depression?


For what it's worth, that just means 3 more people disagreed than agreed. But what you described at least lines up with my experience, which is worth a smidge at least.
