well, i saw my doctor and he suggested that i "not rock the boat" for now since the wedding is coming up and changing meds can be a long process. So for now I am just staying on the Effexor (75mg), exercising to ease my mind of the weight issue, and dealing with the sexual s/e's "the old fashioned way". He said later if they don't improve we can either try Lexapro or Cymbalta or add something like Viagra. We shall see. Wellbutrin is not great for me since I had a lot of anxiety before the Effexor.
Curves sounds great-I have always wanted to join that, actually. For now I try to go running with my fiance (well, he runs about twice as many miles, but we do it on the treadmill so it is sort of "together") and do some of the machines at our little apartment gym.
thanks all!
