Hey there - first off, good luck with your medications. I know what a pain in the ass it is to go from one to the other, increasing and decreasing doses until you find just what works for you. But keep hope - after six years of trying 25 different medications (and medication combinations), I'm finally stable, and even though the fight was tiring and difficult, I've found that you can come out victorious on the other side

Again, I hesitate to post this because my experience with Effexor was really bad but remember everyone is individual. For me, the medication that has worked best is probably Lustral but even that had side effects.
From what I remember Effexor made me gain 30 pounds in 2 months and made me a total zombie plus withdrawal was horrible, but luckily didn't last long. If you are going to take it then don't come off it suddenly because the withdrawal can make you really ill, and I know some people are campaigning to have it withdrawn from the market partly because of this.
If you google effexor or effexor + withdrawal that should give you more info.

Hi! I've been on Effexor for a little over a year. I've tired so many different ones that I can't remember. So far so good. I'm up to 225mg and I believe I need to go higher. I didn't read the side effects but I also experience the sweats, puking, diarrhea, dizziness and getting really cloudy when I miss my dose. At first I thought I was having horrible headaches again or something worse was happening with my brain. Come to find out I just missed my dose one day and I truly thought I was going to die. I never felt like a zombie like I did with other drugs. I hope this helps.
