> Yes, all of the above. Wow, never knew I could talk about this with other people....I'm the only one ever dealing w/ this and all....I have gained weight, had "electric" shocks when "overdue" OMG, gotta take at same time everyday!, called 911 because I thought I was having a stroke when I was first on it, (2 1/2 years now) and turned out to be hyper-ventillation and anxiety because I forgot it the night before! I'm tired ALL the time, and can't lose weight no matter what I do....Scared to get off, because I feel "normal" and "happy", just like I used to, but wake up soaking wet and still "worry" just like I used to. God, will I ever be "me" again????


THere are other drugs out there, they may work to bring back the old "you" again. just be carful weening yourself off of effexor, side effects are nasty. hang in there! I am now on day three without it and still struggling to get rid of side effects.. you can do it!
