Ralph S. ~ I gained 12 lbs. in a year on 75 mg. of Effexor, even though I go/went to the gym 3-4 times a week and watch every morsel of food I put in my mouth. I've started weaning off of Effexor seven weeks ago and have been totally off of it for a month this coming Tuesday. Withdrawal was pure hell, and I still feel awful. Dunno if it's still withdrawal or if these feelings are going to be "me" from now on. I'm a complete nauseous zombie with a racing heart and tears only a blink away. The racing heart makes me so, so tired. All I want to do is sleep. I still go to the gym, but am exhausted the rest of the day. Paralyzed almost. Tomorrow I'll call the doctor and go on something else.
What is your plan of action? Alli
