I hated Effexor. It completely and totally killed my sex drive and made me a total zombie. Welbutrin and zoloft in combination seemed to work better for me.
Personal experience (recent) - I was feeling the same way you are (I've been reading your posts). My thyroid was completely whacked out, hardly functioning. I wouldn't take anything til your bloodwork comes back.
Effexor was the first one they experimented on me with. It didn't seem to help me at all though. I just felt like a zombie the whole time I was on it. They switched me to a couple of different things, none of which I feel really helped much. Celexa and Paxil both made me a sexless zombie. All I really did was mope around feeling all sleepy most of the day, never having an opinion on anything.
Zoloft has had the most praises from what I've heard. But I hear that different things work for different people. Hey at least that place you went to was cheap, right? I mean, I don't know if it was. I just remember having to pay out of pocket for everything when I checked myself in. That was lame and expensive... and another reason I stopped.

But I hope things work out for you.
