ADJ,
I'm sort of surprised that your doctor gave you effexor as a first try for your depression. Generally effexor is given after more simple SSRIs have failed. What about trying a regular SSRI first, like Prozac or Zoloff? Two years is a long time to battle severe depression with no medication to help.
