James here....
I can see why you would want to avoid it !
Have you been on any AD's that were even somewhat
effective ? It is hard to tell from Effexor/venlafaxine alone
which neurotransmitter an AD needs to effect, as Effexor
effects 2 that are assoc. with mood. Welbutrin/Buproprion
would be my other suggestion, it has action more like Effexor
and seems in some to be the least likely to cause
weight gain.It is a fact of life that all AD's effect weight in many people.
Do read up in the archives and on the Psycobable Tips:

Effexor, it must be done properly to avoid signifacant w/d problems.James
