Please do your own research, the doc`s don`t know shit. SORRY. The doc put u on effexor and did not fully inform u. These drugs are mindaltering and mess with your whole body as well. Don`t get hooked on just another shitty drug that does nothing but cause problems. Do u want seizures, insomnia, nightmares, migraines, thyroiddysfunction, no sexdrive, no emotions etc. Mind u the damage due to these drugs can be irreversible. Search internet, too many people got their lives ruined. I am one of them, and I know what I am talking about. These drugs causes what they are supposed to \"heal\". In other words dulls your emotions for life.

Should be banned before they ruin more human brains.

Normal brainfunction is more important than weight , right?

DO NOT TAKE SSRI!

Look into going to a classical acupuncture, it helps a lot and heals u as well. Good luck
