Just putting in my two cents . . . I tried Effexor XR last year and gained 25 lbs in 3 months (I am normally a very thin person)and it made me feel so sedated I had to go off of it. Also gave me night sweats. I was so numb and dull-minded I almost lost my job! Depression symptoms were gone, of course, I was too out of it to feel or worry about anything!!
I went off of it by going on Zoloft and had no problems with withdrawal-type symptoms.
Good luck to all of you!
