Antidepressants causing crazy appetite, need a buddy to keep me in check!

Hi there, I’m a 23 y/o Female 5’3” (SW:170lbs CW: 135 (? last time I checked and I’m too scared to check) GW: 125lbs)

I’m on antidepressants (Mirtazapine) which causes crazy appetite at night. I stick to my diet and calorie and macro goals all day only to break it all after the meds. This causes a horrible guilt trip which is affecting me severely mentally, causing eating disorders even but the doctor was adamant on keeping it. I hopefully only have to take it for a couple of weeks more though. I tried going on keto which helped the cravings but the doctor told me I shouldn’t be doing it. So I am trying to do low carb but it isn’t helping as much. My family isn’t being too cooperative- they still purchase snacks and desserts even when I’ve expressly told them not to keep it in the house while I’m on the medication. My leg is severely injured so I can’t work out at all, except strength training my arms and there’s a limit to which I can do that. I really, really need a buddy for the couple of weeks to be able to keep me in check and I would of course do the same. :)
