> Sly, it is no longer an option! You MUST go to your doctor immediately about this problem!! For whatever reason, you are NOT getting better, whether it's meds or for other reasons. Please go! "Who Cares?" is not an appropriate response to the things that are happening to you!

I don't know if the meds are causing this - I think they might be. Before the Effexor I was severely depressed, but eventually I thought I was starting to feel better, I was having "good days". But now I'm beginning to think the sense of calm I have is really anhedonia, a complete loss of pleasure. It's not that I don't feel depressed, I feel nothing. Yesterday I broke up with my boyfriend, we've been together for one year, I cried for about 10 mins., and then nothing, I felt empty. I couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, I put on a pair of shorts this morning, zipped them up, and they fell off, I've lost 2 more lbs. But who cares? I still feel nothing, like I'm more invisible than ever.
