In reply to long term side effects of effexor, posted by soccergirl on September 1, 2004, at 20:40:22
> i am currently taking 75mg of effexor and want to stop. i have been taking it for around a year and fine i have terrible side effects that i hope are not permenant. i have terrible short and long term memory loss. i lose my train of thought mid-sentence and forget what i am talking about. i have gained over 20lbs and am always tired. from what i have been reading, the withdrawal process sounds really scary.
> can anyone describe specifically what kind of withdrawal symptoms they had and how long they had been on effexor
> thanksI know exacly what your talking about with forgetting what your going to say mid sentence..that is very frustrating I to have trouble with short term memory..although I have been off Paxil for a month or to it doesen't seem to have improved..
