I think we must be long lost twins. I had basically the same experience a month ago on my birthday coming off effexor with the same reaction from my boyfriend. I went off it for weight gain and sexual problems. Sounds like you might be having the emotional crash. Im sooo sorry. But, take heart , it will get better.
I dont agree with the other posters, there are oter meds for you to try which dont have sexual side effects. Have you been on Wellbutrin?
There are other options as well
One thing you need to do NOW is make an appointment with a good PDoc and get some new meds before you are too debilitated to do anything for yourself. Just get yourself to that phone tomorrow and call, no matter what!
