I also lost weight on effexor. My side effects were kinda like i was on a caffiene high, but felt like a zombie. lots of sweating, shaking, headaches. I have never been on a drug that took sooooo LONG to adjust to!!! But everyone says its worth it. I started at 37.5 too and after a 8 weeks am now on 225mg. Have had side effects every time my doc ups the dosage. She also is starting me on remeron for sleep and anxiety. I take my effexor in the morning too, but the remeron at night. Good luck, and dont give up too early!!
