Hi Helmi,
I read your post about anorexia...Effexor sure is not the drug to take for that. I'm sorry your doctor tricked you!
Have you heard about Zyprexa (Olanzapine)? It is used by some psychiatrist on a trial basis to treat anorexia - they think that anorexia could be some kind of psychosis where you see your body as "fat" when you really are not. Zyprexa does cause some weight gain on its own but it is also used to treat the weird thinking about anorexia.
Maybe talk to your doctor about that.
Good luck.
