> I have been on Effexor 150mg for a little more than a month and have gained 5 kilos in that time. This is a huge crisis for me. I am now 57kg (1.59m tall) and think I look like a giant hippopotomus even though I can still fit into a size 8. Hate what I look like, but need to live around this as the Effexor has helped so much for the depression. It's really such a paradox!

I have a question. Does the weight gain happen because the drug makes you hungry all the time so you have to eat more or different things? Or does your intake stay the same but the weight comes on anyway?
