I've known many people on effexor, icluding myself, and i have never run accross anyone who lost weight on it.

> Okay, so I have heard from quite a few people that effexor definitely causes weight gain. Is there ANYONE who has experienced weight loss on this? I know meds affect everyone else differently. I am NOT going to start taking it now. I am going to stay on my paxil. Switching to a different med, and therefore being able to rid the anorgasmia, doesn't seem worth it if I don't even feel attractive around my boyfriend. My othere question on this whole effexor/weight gain thing? I have read that one of the possible side effects is decreased appetite/anorexia, so I am confused as to why so many people gain weight on it.
