> hi i was on effexor for one year and have been off for exactly 2 weeks and three days oh my god it was terrible in the beginning i thought i would never feel okay. Now i am a little better thank god and i began seeing a therapist. It is still hard i am always tired and the lights bother my eyes do they bother yours? wierd right? Anyway i want to start trying to have a baby in the near future and i refuse to stay on the medication. I honestly feel that i gained weight on effexor so i am trying my best not to go back on so far so good What about you why did you take it and how are you feeling being off write back i am new to this site and would love to talk.
Hi! I am new to this site as well. Have been off effexor for only 1 1/2 days now. It's going to be hell I am sure but I am bound and determined to do it. I too gained weight going from a size 6 to a 14 in very little time. VERY DEPRESSING! As I wasn't depressed enough LOL! I read another post on here how Effexor isn't considered an addictive med....HAHAHAHAHAHA. I 100% agreed with that post how pharm. companies try to make money that way. If this isn't the same as going through withdrawl I do not what is. Thanks for leaving your post, I'm glad I found it to help me see that there will be light! SanityPlz
