jannette-
The weight gain is pretty normal for Effexor.My appetite has gone berserk since I've been on it.I'm trying desperately to not gain the weight back (I had lost 25lbs before starting it). It's good to hear U R doing better and that the board helped. Sometimes it just helps to vent..... I,too,spent yrs thinking I was nuts because I felt so bad and my FamDoc and OBGYN wouldn't listen when I complained about it all the time. It was finally diagnosed when I went for a Psy. Eval. for Bariatric Sugery. Along with that came a diag. of ADHD. I'm more concerned about that right now than the dep. Hang in there and keep fighting - it's worth it.
