In reply to new to effexor, and I have questions, posted by zinya on May 26, 2003, at 21:29:22
I was just put on Effexor today by my doctor. I have had many emotional problems since my pregnancy and divorce. My husband of several years was in Florida recording his new album last year and I stayed home since I was pregnant and having a hard time physically with it. When I was eight months along he called me up on the phone and told me he was in love with some groupie (a girl twenty years younger than he) he met at one of his concerts out there and she moved in with him the week I was in the hospital giving birth. I have been on an emotional roller coaster ever since and now that my divorce is final my doctor said I was seriously post partem and having a problem controlling my hatred and anger toward my ex-husband and his new girlfriend. He constantly calls and gets me upset and won't leave me alone. He doesn't want to be with me and his son, but he won't get totally out of my life either and its very confusing.
I have never taken any drugs for depression and I had never heard of this particular drug. I know I have to get some help but I am wondering how well this drug actually works and if it had helped others with similar situations.
I have been totally consumed by my anger and hate and I have been totally listless and just in a horrible downward spiral. The only bright spot is my seven month old son and I don't want all of this to effect him, which I why I had to get some help.I can be emailed at TXMetalGoddess@aol.com if anyone wants to give me some insight on this.
