Yes, my reactions have been quite similar, except I have no mood swings because I don't feel anything. Strange dreams though, that I usually can't remember--very frightening sometimes.
I've been on effexor for almost 7 months. I've lost 35 lbs, which is probably 15 more than I needed to, and I have no appetite. I can go a day or so w/o eating and not even be bothered--quite unusual for me because I used to love to cook. My emotions are very stable now, but I do feel very flat and emotionless. For me, flat is good right now, I don't want to deal w/anything. Everyone says I'm much calmer.
