Impotent, fat, tired, depressed on Effexor XR

Posted by jay on February 28, 2002, at 17:11:46

I don't know what else to say. I've been on it for five years. Even when I come off this med, and give myself a break from it, I still can't lose weight, and I don't have the sex drive I used to. I *don't* want to go the route of taking stimulants, because they just poop out, and that is my personal choice.

I am only 32, and I feel like I am 50. Should I maybe go on testosterone for a short period of time? (I don't have a regular family doc, but my Dad has a small amount of testosterone cream. For a week or two, to try, wouldn't hurt.)

What I *really* want to know, is HOW and WHY I am feeling this way, and WHY I can't feel EXACTLY like I did before I took antidepressants? Sorry for being so negative...

Jay
