I am really confused and kind of scared. I've been on effexor for three weeks now. 37.5 mg the 1st week, two of those capsules the second week and now two in am and one at pm. The 1st week I felt strange but I stayed on it because it had cut my appetite drastically. I lost 15 lbs by the second week. I've just started three pills a day, I don't feel depressed but I don't feel too much of nothing. But, all of a sudden I just can't stop eating, even thou I've up the dossage. I do feel like I can stay on it at present but after reading all the comments on withdrawal symptons I'am really concerned about what I might be getting myself into. I am glad I've found this website because it has made me more aware of something I had no idea of, but I really have to make a decision if I want to stay on it or not. Just wanted to let you all know and thanks again for making me aware of the side effect. I really wish I would have known before I took my 1st dose.
