effexor research – Naturopathic Medicine Network

Sounds like there are a lot of us trying to get off of effexor! I went to a well known and respected Herb shop in my town and spoke to a guy who knew a lot about effexor. He spend time with me explaining different things I could do to help and gave me some literature too. I plan on replacing the effexor with the herbal depression remedies that are available but you have to be careful about not taking both at the same time. Anyway, this makes me feel like I’m more in control and not so helpless. My doctor put me on effexor not for depression but for anxiety! And now the medicine has made me depressed. The weight gain is horrible and I have no energy, nor do I care much about anything. I do care but it’s hard to do anything. Anyway, feel free to write me at my regular email address.
