Hey there and welcome! I am on Effexor XR and it is the only one to help me. I however, have severe anxiety,severe depressive d/o and PTSD. You said u do not have anxiety but mild depression w/ an already low libido. Although ur doc is correct about the family issue, it may not be the right med. for u BUT, it does take time. The side effects do ease up or go away and then u begin to feel better. Just to let u know, i recently had my doc add Wellbutrin XL along w/ the Effexor b/c it increases energy a good bit and i have been so fatigued lately BUT it is also known to up ones libido quite a bit. U may want to ask about this and also google it. Just some info. that i hope helps. Take care ; )
