Oh my, I am so glad to hear your story. I have been fully convinced that ever since my husband went on effexor 5 years ago that he has been a totally different person and not in a good way. I don\'t know him anymore! We are currently seperated and he is so angry at me and I have no clue why. His moods are ever changing and I don\'t know how he is going to be one day to the next. I feel so sad and hurt that this is happening to him and he doesn\'t even see it but everyone else that has known him for any length of time does. I am mad at his psychiatrist for not informing his family about the change that would occur from switching him from prozac to effexor. Thanks for your story it helped me see that I am not the only one with this problem
