> It depends on why you're getting off Effexor as to how to handle the withdrawals. Some ppl just go to another one. I personally am not going to take any other AD.The first time that I got off effexor I did not shed the weight like I wanted to. I did lose some but only thru diet and excersise. Unfortunately mine did not drop off. I am still struggling with the weight issue since I was a size 0 and now I am a 7. I know that still sounds thin but not on a 5'2 person. I am really going to work out and eat right before I try to quit AD.
