Hello All..May I say that I am so glad to have found this site!!
My problem is this..
I was diagnosed with depression 2 years ago.
I was first put on Zoloft, no help. Then Wellbutrin, a little better. Then added Effexor,
Lots better. Then for some strange reason, taken off and put on Celexa. Way WRONG!! No good ofr me!
So, I am back to Wellbutrin; 200mg per day and Effexor 225mg per day.
Previous problems were a very difficult childhood,
3 extremely difficult marriages, 3 children and a complete hystorectomomy.
Problem now, Since 2 years ago when I was put on these anti-depressants I have gained in excess of 50 pounds!! Bout ready to do something DRASTIC!!
AND, I have NO sex drive whatsoever!! This is ruining my new marriage!!
I want to get off of these pills! But not quite sure how to. My Doctors say no not now, but I am ready!
The problem is if I even miss ONE dose of the effexor I am in terrible shape!! Nausea, vomiting,
no energy just want to sleep.
So anybody out there got any advise?
Please help!!!
